Lesser use of resources. The cost of equipment for today is one feature that not many people care about. It is common to change the computer every 10-12 months. Corporates in the box where a large population, this may be enough overhead. Extra every month and the box for more savings. In our organization, for example, we can increase the average life of a computer 9-10 months 14-18 months.
Linux how to assist in improving the life of a computer? Many operating system to issue an update every 2 years. Linux and there is no discrimination. And for every new update appeared in many articles and unfortunately only on the value of bloat. This makes the new system fumigating operation slowly at the current equipment, leadership and equipment upgrades. Also with Linux, all distributions of regular updates and make more bloated operating system. However, this one in which the profit comes in we have to open the source code. For the desktop, recompiling the kernel, X-windows and the desktop environment (KDE, Gnome) can do wonders. One can recompile the code for a particular processor, video card, etc. This is to optimize the OS to run on special equipment. This also allows us to help eliminate all the equipment we have. Significantly reduce bloat. If the Windows-free code will have the same benefits. Unfortunately there is no advantage, so we can continue to run Windows which helps equipment we have.
Working most of the operating system from 80,386 to continue. This means that children benefit from special treatment because the new system backwards compatible. Newer equipment means only 386 instructions executed in the fast. When we make plans to use the processor specific instructions to do more faster processor. For example, no more new processors come with instructions for Multimedia Apps, etc. (MMX). This significantly increases the processing speed broadband Multimedia Apps.
Linux is also evident that a strong, stable, reliable and secure operating system. This means that linux is not affected by the worm, not pelelezane Ware, viruses, etc., which has become a big problem for many users at the company Windoze world today. The worst that can be done is to use his term after reinstalling the OS the computer is done by viruses or worms. Important person hours and money lost only in reinstalling.Linux also become part of the viruses and worms but can only effect the user rather than system files. Aliyopewa below is part of a wonderful blog on the subject.
Each program in Linux, including viruses, he can only do what the user can make the race. Real users will be allowed to year t hurt the system (the root user can only be), so not able to run their programs. Because of the difference between the strike (root-run) and the process the user's process, hostile executable that non-root user to accept (or building) and then executes (runs) can not infect or operating system. Just like you can only delete your own files (for example, you've written permission), run the executable you can not affect other users (or root's) file. Therefore, although you can make (or Open), and then run, viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and so on, can not do much. Unless you do it as root. S is easy to avoid.
One of the many who spoke about the advantages of Linux is that Linux FREE. That the number one reason for the move to Linux a lot. Free because there is no per-user license for all programs, too. For example, with windows you get a terminal server. But that has 5 user license limit. This means that the cost of the OS is not alone. But with the cost of each application. And each work environment is duplicated to other machines using the same amount of money. For updated program with a new file from the application will not work for older versions. Users are forced to upgrade. This process can always increase the total cost of the organization must draw Thus, systems and business administration never cost more than a one-time fee.
Linux allows users to build a simple network management. Consider this the NFS (network file system), Minis (Network Information System) and DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) can develop a beautiful roaming profiles, where all user information stored on the server with the desktop. So a professional user you can live on any computer in the office and get all the data and the desktop. This makes it convinient for users. And from the executive point of view they only need to manage the server controls all data backup, recovery, etc. Linux has a good system to provide access to the village. One can use SSH to get a text-based systems via secure shell or even the use of X-Windows for those who prefer a GUI for the system in the distance.
