Businesses

Refer to the News section above to see an example of a business that considers Linux as a useful tool.

Businesses are being forced to upgrade their software. Microsoft has required all new software purchases to come with a license that requires periodic upgrades (on Microsoft's schedule). Further, Microsoft has dropped support for older versions of Windows (3.1, 95, 98, NT, 2000). This leaves businesses trapped into either using unmaintainable software or upgrading even though it will severely impact the business. Linux gives you the freedom from this.
