77% February 1996 / Special Report / Linux Matters Summary: Linux Matters. It's inexpensive, but that's only the beginning of the story. Tom Yager You don't always get what you pay for. You can spend $1000 or more for fully tricked-out Unix for your PC. Or for about $25, you can get Linux, a Unix variant, which is just as good for running an in-house BBS, an employee information system, a World Wide Web server, or a Usenet news server.
75% September 1994 / Reviews / Power of Cooperation Summary: Power of Cooperation. Linux, a truly robust Unix clone, has evolved out of the Internet--and it's freely available. J. Bruce Dawson Linux is not just another implementation of Unix. It's a complete rewrite, with an interesting history and some attractive features, not the least of which is its price tag: It has none. Linux is free--at least free from the more traditional license restrictions that come with commercial Unix.

67% January 1996 / Letters / Linux Fan Club Summary: Linux Fan Club. "The Linux Phenomenon" (November) implies that Linux, FreeBSD, and NetBSD are difficult to use.

65% November 1994 / Letters / This Unix Is Free, but the Support Is Free-Form Summary: This Unix Is Free, but the Support Is Free-Form. I just finished reading J. Bruce Dawson's short review of Fintronic's distribution of Linux (``Power of Cooperation,'' September). While his review is quite accurate and fair, he failed to mention that there is excellent support for Linux from a number of sources: The best and most up-to-date documentation is at an FTP site: sunsite. unc. edu, in the /pub/Linux/docs/LDP directory.

64% April 1996 / Letters / More Linux Summary: More Linux. "Linux Matters" (Unix Special Report, February) presented an excellent introduction and overview of the Linux OS, the rich variety of Unix software that runs on it, and the free-spirited nature of Linux developers and users. Your readers should also be aware of Debian GNU/Linux (http://www. debian. org), sponsored by the Free Software Foundation.
64% December 1995 / Letters / Linux Please Summary: Linux Please. While BYTE seems to cover OS/2 in proportion to its market share, you don't cover Linux at all. With all the trash talk the Internet is getting regarding pornography, some coverage of Linux would be good. Linux is being developed by people all around the world using the Internet as a forum for discussion and distribution. It demonstrates the true spirit and power of the Internet.

62% May 1996 / Letters / The Linux Phenomenon Summary: The Linux Phenomenon. BYTE captured the Linux phenomenon in "Linux Matters" (February); as one of the rabid fans to whom you allude, I applaud. However, if you plan to use Linux and want to take advantage of the expensive video card you paid for when you bought your computer, you'll absolutely have to buy a commercial X server. The article also doesn't make it clear enough that there are errors in the compatibility lists. I love my Linux box, but for three weeks I went through a hellish orgy of stack traces and expensive trips to the computer store before I could get it to work.
62% November 1995 / Special Report / OS Paradise Summary: The Linux Phenomenon. Linux is an amazing work: a robust operating system designed and written by far-flung groups of engineers, working for free. Recent attempts at commercialization notwithstanding, Linux is clearly the best 32-bit OS you can get for $25. Somewhat oddly, it seems to be attracting more development than commercial PC Unix systems, at least among those developers who contribute their wares to the public. And Netscape, that mother of all Web browsers, eschews all other PC Unix versions to run on Linux.
62% January 1997 / Core Technologies / The State of Linux Summary: The State of Linux. The latest version of this free Unix spans multiple platforms and offers many sophisticated features. Jim Mohr Imagine a Unix server supporting a dozen users connected via serial terminals. Now add a few more users connected across the network using X Window. Finally, let's add a handful of Windows PCs that use the Unix machine as a file and print server.
62% February 1996 / Special Report / Linux Matters Summary: The Sound And The Fury. Just before the demise of Commodore, a marketing executive for the company summarized what he thought led to the Amiga's failure to capture significant market share. He minced no words: "The fanatical element among our customer base hasn't done us any favors." The similarities between the Amiga camp and Linux users are striking. If a journalist writes an article about, say, printers, he or she may get several flaming letters from Amigoids complaining that mention of the Amiga was excluded from the review.
