OSNews on the LinuxWorld Exhibition Floor

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the places-to-be dept.

Expo writes "OSNews reports on the second day of the LinuxWorld Expo. Highlights of the article is CodeWeaver's CrossOver Photoshop effort and the fact that OpenOffice.org is collaborating with _all_ the other major Linux office suites and word processors towards the creation of a new, open XML-based, file format. NewsForge also has a report."

    I keep hearing about it but I don't know what it does, does it run on AOL?

  2. This is why linux is doomed to FAIL by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    This is pathetic. A whole article about a linux trade show, and not ONE worthwhile piece of information. I've got some news for you linux types: without industry-standard applications like Microsoft Word or games like Quake 3, your little toy OS is going exactly NOWHERE.

    I know a bunch of you are going to reply to this to whine about how all kinds of "exciting" (to a sunlight-starved gnome with CRT-bleached skin) server technologies were presented, but guess what? Boring server shit doesn't sell computers. Compliance with industry standards and good games do.
