Xandros helps Linux advance

Publication:Philadelphia InquirerDate:Feb 14 2004

Linux is free, or nearly so, if you do not buy a packaged version gussied up to be familiar to Windows users and bearing CDs and a manual, as Xandros is. It is incredibly stable. And, because its code is openly published, it morphs quickly to shed bugs and acquire new capabilities.

After using Xandros' version of Linux for several days, I can understand why Microsoft is feeling Linux's hot breath on its neck.

For much of its existence, Linux has been an operating system only for companies with IT departments capable of understanding and managing it.

Now, however, iterations such as Xandros Desktop 2 are coming very, very close to turning Linux into a product for the home computer user.
