Hello,

Sorry, the recent internet link below is in french.
(28/09/2018)

I translate a little bit :
The Linux system "cloud Azure" of Microsoft represents now 50%,
and each month it increases.

As I written, Microsoft says that :
"they are now a major actor of the opensource..."

Even the ex-General Executive of Microsoft, Steve Ballmer, 
who hated Linux, qualified it as a "cancer ", says now that he is a 
fan of the Linux system. The time has changed...

The article :
www.zdnet.fr/actualites/c-est-qui-le-patron-sur-microsoft-azure-linux-39874301.htm

> "Linux users of all countries, unite you !" :

Yes, but we are not numerous enough (in the consumer market),
only 3%.

The desktops of Linux could be a brake to switch to Linux,
(KDE, Mate, Xfce...)
but TDE-Trinity desktop is really good and not known enough.

Maybe, the desktop of Windows is the only quality of this system.

For me : Linux and TDE are perfect, the winning cocktail !

Remains the battle materials (install driver) too complex on Linux.

Companies as IBM coud help the Linux community ?
(after the disaster of OS/WARP).

Regards,

André
