| The Penguin's New Desktop Habitat |
|---|
Open-source software conferences tend to attract a typical assortment of long-bearded geeks, tech evangelists, and the odd business suit. But at the Linux Desktop Consortium conference, which will take place on Nov. 10 at Boston University, one of the stars will be Dr. Martin Echt, an avuncular cardiologist from Albany, N.Y. Dr. Echt, chief operating officer of Capital Cardiology Associates, an eight-office practice, will discuss his decision to shift his network of PCs to Linux from Microsoft's (MSFT ) Windows, the operating system that controls the basic functions of computers running on Intel (INTC ) microprocessors.
