FROM From: "Ruben I Safir - Secretary NYLXS"
SUBJECT Re: [hangout] My Linux Desktop Odyssey, 2004

Here is a BETTER article from the same website!!!

Free-IT indeed!!


The LUG of Iraq is establishing a Linux Center in Baghdad to conduct training
in all levels of Linux usage, administration, and development. With a mission
to launch a Linux-based training lab and a lending library, the organization
seeking global assistance in setting up the program.

Ashraf T. Hasson, one of the founders of the Baghdad-based Linux Users Group
has commented that a migration strategy is not necessary in Iraq and open
source Linux can penetrate the market before users get "locked into something
else."

The Iraqi Linux Group is educating people in Iraq about Open Source and Linux,
hosting its first seminar at AL-Nahrain University in Baghdad on the 17th of
February 2004. Al-Nahrain University and Baghdad University are being tapped
to host Linux training classes, according to the LUG.

Today in Baghdad, up-to-date PC hardware and software is readily available say
organizers of the program, but computer books are difficult to obtain. The
Freedom Technology Center and bookcrossing.com members have teamed up to host
an event at the end of this month that will ship computer books to Iraq's
Baghdad Linux Center.

Donations of good computer books to help foster Linux and software education
in Iraq are currently being accepted at the new Mountain View, CA-based
Freedom Technology Center, a new non-profit IT training facility. The center
will be hosting a fundraiser and drive for books on Friday, March 26 from 9 AM
PST through midnight.

One restriction on donations to Iraq includes the US export ban on
cryptographic software. Because most current OS distributions contain some
cryptographic software, distributions and CDs included in some texts will not
be permitted.

For more information about how you can help out, visit the website. To learn
more about the formation of the Linux user group in Iraq an interview with
Adam Davidson, the Baghdad correspondent for Minnesota Public Radio's
Marketplace who helped spearhead the initiative is available here.

> > In conclusion, Microsoft XP remains the best desktop operating

> > distributions that will run on older hardware supported by Windows
> > 98, but not Microsoft Windows XP. Vector Linux is probably the best
> > of these. Flonix is also an option.
> >
> > Xandros and ELX remain the best of the commercial desktop Linux
> > distributions. I prefer ELX. This is not a quality judgment but one
> > based on personal preference. ELX still has room for improvement.
> > They need to polish up their look, add Java and add users other than
> > root during the install. With these changes, I believe ELX will be
> > the best commercial Linux Desktop.
> >
> > Finally, there are two very exciting free Linux distributions to consider.
> > MEPIS Linux is the more polished of the two and it gives up nothing
> > to any commercial Linux desktop. Ark Linux is amazingly good but is
> > less mature than MEPIS Linux.
> >
> > nd the verdict is: If cost is not a concern, Linux is not ready to go
> > head-to-head with Microsoft Windows XP. The best Linux distributions
> > are better than Windows 98. Hardware and peripherals must be
> > considered, but users resistance should not be a problem.
> > Organizations can save substantial amounts of money moving to Linux
> > and the new distributions will allow a migration to Linux with
> > minimum impact on the organization.
> >
> > ELX Linux and Xandros remain my favorite commercial Linux
> > distributions. I generally prefer the Power Desktop version of ELX
> > Linux. I only reviewed the Biz Desktop version.
> >
> > MEPIS Linux and Ark Linux are two free Linux distributions that are among
> > the best distributions for the desktop available. All of these distributions
