I am looking for Linux propaganda

[idontknow9999]

I am looking for some good Linux propaganda. Such as polls from users who say they like it more then Windows. Or statistics which show Linux is becoming more popular, etc.

Anyone got any good links/articles?

Best propaganda is the live cd... order a couple through shipit and hand it to people you think may be interested in :)

Best propaganda is to have them see and test themselves and you having answers for questions they have :)

You might want to check out the Ubuntu testimonial forum:

I am looking for information to include in a report :P

edit: Patrick K: ah that might help.

MaximumPC recnetly had a pie chart showing how many users planned to switch to Vista. Many said they would stay with XP, a few said Vista and a large chunk said jump ship to Linux.

Then again do some google searching, I'm sure there will be many articles on just what you need. Also in these forums are many user testimonials.

You could always go to friends and use there computers. Then erase there system32 folders. Then when they yell at you, blame them. If they used linux that would not happen. They brought it on themselves. Just kidding, unless you want no friends?

Great info! Perhaps not exactly what you're looking for, but it's a good starting point.

I'd also like to mention that MS has already abandoned XP and has stated there will be no SP3 (http://www.windowsitpro.com/Articles/ArticleID/95725/95725.html?Ad=1).

well the report is written and finished.... 25% of my grade written in 5-6 hours...

Probably not the smartest thing I ever did, especially considering I suck in English...

The report was basically write a business proposition or something (should of probably asked questions before sunday night)... I wrote that the school should change some of its computers to linux from win xp...

Reason 1: Cost, 2: more options for the students/experience, 3: security.

Funny thing is, this was assigned at the beginning of the year, and I realized on Friday night that I didn't know what I was supposed 2 write about :P
