Linux cannot compete with Longhorn

Linux cannot compete with Longhorn 09/08/2004 03:37 AM
Wait. Hear me out. I'm not saying that because Longhorn is a superior platform in any way. I'm saying it because Longhorn is not real, it's just the latest codename for the next version of Windows. As everyone knows, the next version of Windows is always the best operating system of all time: it's always faster, more stable, and more secure than anything the world has ever seen before. Comparing a real operating system like GNU/Linux against the marketing dreams of the malignant monopoly from Redmond is like comparing your geekiness with Helen, Sweetheart of the Internet: a futile and unfulfilling exercise.

How Linux And The Mac Can Compete
Against Windows "Longhorn" 11/17/2003 12:48 PM
With the recent release of the initial Longhorn bits, we now need to start thinking about the competitive landscape for 2005, which is when the next version of Windows is likely to ship. To understand the future, we need to first look at the past, at the launch of Windows 95 and how IBM OS/2 and Apple Computer failed to compete against Microsoft. I was the lead Dataquest analyst on the Windows 95 launch, and Longhorn is beginning to look like a similar series of events with many of the same players in the game.

How can free software compete with
commercial developers?

How can free software compete with
commercial developers? 11/05/2003 10:55 AM
The amazing thing about the free vs. proprietary software race is that free software is in it at all. With all the resources larger proprietary software companies have at their command, you'd think their products would be unfailingly easy to use, virtually bug-free, and priced so low that no one would mind paying for them. But this is not the case. Why isn't it? You'd think a software company full of carefully-selected programmers, project leaders, market researchers, quality control personnel, professional documentation writers, and a technical support staff would have no trouble beating any open source project -- with both hands tied behind its corporate back -- even if it gave the open source project a 3 km lead in a 5 km race.

NDIS Wrapper for Linux

NDIS Wrapper for Linux 11/19/2003 03:28 PM
NDIS might sound like another obscure acronym, but this project could open use of a host of wireless LAN cards to the Linux world: Only Atheros has openly embraced the open-source community by working with an intermediary who has developed Linux and FreeBSD drivers. The intermediary was necessary because Atheros (along with many other radio firms) uses software-defined radio (SDR), which if not properly secured would allow a programmer to use illegal frequencies. To avoid FCC trouble, Atheros worked with Sam Leffler, who privately developed a hardware abstraction layer that sits between the driver and the hardware. That code remains private. Broadcom has been mocked and criticized repeatedly in open-source forums for not making a similar abstraction layer available so that Linux, FreeBSD, and other Unix-like platforms could use Broadcom's gear. (Older cards have had Linux and similar drivers written and companies released more information because the cards were hardwired to use just legal unlicensed frequencies in legal ways.) The NDIS wrapper software emulates the abstraction layer in Windows that makes it easier for hardware vendors to write to a common specification instead of having to constantly develop custom drivers for each release of Windows. NDIS also lets software developers write to a standard abstraction instead of supporting each card and release. By emulating NDIS, Linux users could simply write to the NDIS layer to build applications, which would include standard network interface clients. [via Slashdot]...
