Linux can be said to have gone into the limelight last year and this year, even surpassing windows. Linux is easy to understand as a simple version of Unix, with most of the functionality of Unix, and in some ways enhancements. He follows the GPL rules and opens up all the source code, and anyone can modify the source code.
Because his source code is public, so that some people can easily analyze it, find out their weaknesses to attack or put a trojan in which, we take it for granted, is that so? In fact, any changes to the Linux is open, he does not say that you can immediately let the end user to use, this period to pass a lot of people's testing, you can hide so many people? And they're very powerful people. Even if he could cheat and exploit his exploits, we could easily find out how he was attacking, so it would be easier to guard against it.
Linux is divided into two parts: core and package. The core is still tightly controlled and distributed by a group of people, and the package is t.linus by its fans or distributors. Then we have a problem in the process of using Linux, who should we call? Because the core of Linux is free and the distribution is only a small cost, these distributors basically have no profit on the issue, the main profit is in fact by service, so there is no need to worry about the service problem. And the network has a lot of research on Linux sites, what problems can be easily found in the above answer.
We can see that a lot of vendors are starting to support Linux, which is important for his development and popularization. On the one hand is dissatisfaction with Microsoft, its Windows software share is too scary, and its stability and security is difficult to guarantee. I want to choose his main factor is the performance of Linux is trustworthy. On the other hand, we see some of the disadvantages of Linux, one of the main aspects is his ease of use. For average users, his use is a bit too complicated. Most of the operations are done by commands. Although he also has a graphical interface xwindows, but he can only complete a small part of the function, and use is not very much. These are small problems, Linux will have unlimited space for development and good market prospects.
