Five reasons NOT to use Linux
Columnist Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols makes no bones about it: he loves Linux. "But Linux isn't for everybody," he says. In fact, he concedes, there are reasons to avoid a switch from Windows to Linux. "I use it on my servers, I use it on my desktops, and I use it on my entertainment center, where it powers my HDTV TiVo and my D-Link DSM-320 media player, which turns my network into a media library with terabytes of storage," Vaughan-Nichols writes at Linux-Watch.com. "Heck, I even run Linux on my Linksys WRT54G Wi-Fi access points, which hook the whole shebang together. "But Linux isn't for everyone. Seriously. Here are my top five reasons why you shouldn't move to Linux . . ." Huh? Yes, Linux-lover Vaughan-Nichols states it clearly: Linux is too complicated. It is a pain to set up. It doesn't have enough applications. It isn't secure. It's more expensive. But wait! There's more to the story than this.
