The Protest OS


Have you ever thought before ? how the young man create his destiny to become a millionaire in twenty years old ? and why he or she could reach all in short time ? let me talk to you in this post. One of the secrets is … they begin from “need” of people of the world.


Microsoft for example. Found by Henry William Gates and Paul Allen while they are student in university. The right momentum when people need they work finished in short time, accountable and effective. Both of them snap this opportunity. Until now, one of them is a top time of the richest people of the world.


This is the digital era, the largest information field. Who hold the information, hold the world.

We talk here is not focus how they reach the things. We talk here about their product. I will tell you about the other program (operating system) which has shake the market of Microsoft product (windows) even not hardly. Have you heard about Linux? The one favorite open source software.


Linux, built in open source. That meant, all people can open and modify the program with their personal style or other. Different with windows, built in secret program and locked for public. Linux is a protest product of Microsoft which performed monopoly market of land software.


The system found by Richard Stallman, and designed and developed by Linus Travold in first time. The system which has built more effective operating cost. The system also more controllable. I think also, the operating system will shift the behavior of programmer (the man who built, ran, and operated the program). Almost of programmer use the OS (Operating System). As one of protest to Microsoft which has stand alone (monopoly) in that market.


Until now, Linux used in other program, company, and many machine. They opened the forum, released the newsletter and journal. And large community of the world. In different country, in different culture, but in same language program (OS). And has modified in many country. Included in Indonesia, with different name (depend on who modified the OS).
