Linux At The BBC [updated]

Posted by timothy on from the mike-myers'-muse dept.

KobyBoy writes "Damion Yates wrote a very nice and informative article about how the BBC is using Linux. Linux is quite widespread in their in-house server environment, their development environment and of course in their production environment. He even mentions the excellent support Donald Becker (from Linux NIC card support fame) has provided him." Update: 09/24 21:54 GMT by T : Whoops -- this article is pretty old. Make that, the BBC is still using Linux.

    They're using LINUX for production? No wonder they suck. Everyone knows that Macs are FAR superior for production work.
