suggestion for step-by-step site
Should we start keeping stories of success stories about linux in the SxS site? I mean to dupe the whole page, quoting the source, time, date and have a tag on the sidebar.

I cannot supply the content. Evreyone is needed for that.

You know,come to think of it, I've experienced something like this before w/ netscape. Sometimes I can go to a site and I see what you must have seen, all the adds and other page components but the text, or article, isn't there yet. After a *very* pregnant pause the rest of the page usually comes up - though it took me quite a while before I stumbled onto this. It's annoying to be sure.

Don't think so, but I think the SxS site needs a FAQ section. :-) Auyeung - Original Message - From: "Linuxism Chang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Should we start keeping stories of success > stories about linux in the SxS site? > ___ http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives, Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest, Etc ->http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users

Can yuo supply some cases from your experiences in Hongkong? I never really worked in companies that deployed *nix if not linux.

They divide the world up into 4 x 9 hour segments and as one programming shift is going home in Baton Rouge, the next group is taking over the same project in Stockholm followed by those in Delhi (actually Agra) and so on. The people in Baton Rouge effectively see 36 hours work done from the time they come in each morning. -- http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: suggestion for step-by-step site
To be honest with you, I don't have any customer who deploys the *nix only policy, but I do have a few customers interested in switching part of the system to linux. For us in Hong Kong to push for Linux, we encopunter more difficulty, namely the Chinese lanuage add-on. Quite a few companies sell nice distro with CHinese language support. Bluepoint -- very Caldera style, maybe even easier for newbies to use , as the system setup menu ( Under KDE1 ) is very WIndows style. Good manual too. A small but is that the current on sale employs 2.2.x kernel -- but they have reisef file ssytem support. Chinese2000 -- good phone support, abundant device drivers. 2.2.x kernel with KDE2 . Manual on CD. Thiz -- with 2.4 kernel and KDE 2. very good but don't give many options during installation. The default installs only the root account and standardized root password. So for a newbie, it is even easier to install than Windows. But without any prior knowledge of Linux, the installer would always use the box with root login -- standardized password. to name a few. But for office applications, none I ahve seen are stable enough when working on Excel or even Word files created with M$ software. Some more work needs to be done before Linux can take off in Hong Kong. :-) Auyeung - Original Message - From: "Linuxism Chang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2001 2:24 PM Subject: Re: suggestion for step-by-step site > Can yuo supply some cases from your experiences in Hongkong? > I never really worked in companies that deployed *nix if not linux. > > Auyeung at Technet Systems wrote: > > Don't think so, but I think the SxS site needs a FAQ > > section. > > > _ > Do You Yahoo!? > Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com > > ___ > http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Archives, Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest, Etc ->http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users > ___ http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives, Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest, Etc ->http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
Re: suggestion for step-by-step site
I agree. Many questions were about chinese support in many local newsgroups. But is it also that hard to sell linux as a good server for small-medium business? Anyway, Hongkong government and most big corps in Hongkong are Micro$oft fans. You possibly would be under heavy fire fou talk about linux servers in their IT/MIS departments. Even the universities had something aclled M$ university back a few years ago. > For us in Hong Kong to push for Linux, we encopunter more difficulty, namely > the Chinese lanuage add-on. > Quite a few companies sell nice distro with CHinese language support. > But for office applications, none I ahve seen are stable enough when > working on Excel or even Word files created with M$ software. > Some more work needs to be done before Linux can take off in Hong Kong. _ Do You Yahoo!?
