It may just be me, but it seems as though Linux has been in the news with increasing frequency. It seems like a giant snowball is beginning to form and may have the potential to be a serious game changer. With the upgrade to Vista looming in a dark corner for most organizations, it seems like once passed over alternatives are looking considerably more viable. As one who works in the IT industry, I am all for it! While I don’t dislike Microsoft’s Windows XP operating system, it is definitely lacking. The next version of Microsoft’s operating system, entitled Vista does offer some new features, but it is a fear of the unknown security flaws that makes me less than enthusiastic about it. Being a complete Linux noob, I have quite a few questions and concerns, most of them concerning integrating Linux into our existing server environment. I am sure that these questions all have answers, I just don’t know them yet!
