Linux Journal On Linux's Adoption In U.S. Courts

Posted by simoniker on from the guilty-of-being-a-penguin dept.

Sam Hiser writes "Tom Adelstein writes in Linux Journal that, technically, one-third of the U.S. Government has moved to Linux: its Third Branch, the Judiciary. That's 30,000 users across 800 locations, comprising the nation's Federal court system. Given our information overload, it's easy to miss the most significant kernels of news."
