I have no intention of helping Windows at all.
Windows failure can be summarized by a single sentence.
It's corporate mentality and the belief that they know what is best for the Putative User, lead to it's total failure.
It is surviving on Samba, Bind and Python all Unix/Linux Utilities.
It's only success is front end desktop which is glorified beyond it's original use.
To entice and lure a to play games.
Steam Deck and Dock put an end to that domination.
Linux can play windows games but not vice versa.
Windows cannot play Linux games.
It is trying to muddy the cloud in vain.
It's current attempt to use Linux Python for reentry will end up in total disaster.
I pity for the guy or girl who would embrace windows as a workaround and positioning in the IOT.
The Linux failure was not of its own making.
It is totally due to discrimination by OEM guys at the behest of Microsoft corporate plan.
That plan has misfired and Linux is the main operating system for NASA for many reasons.
I want to write a book on Linux Fundamentals from Ceylon, the country in peril with debt crisis.
We are a country which is good in killing it's own citizens in the name of many dogmata.
This country had a president who did not have a email when tsunami hit us.
Then we had a stupid president who came from paddy land and ruined Telecom by appointing his brother as a director.
He was good eating hoppers in Singapore when another ex- president was planning a clandestine attack on Churches with money coming from Middle East.
The current president is well known for his sexual orientation in favour of one sex or UniSex.
He wanted to give laptop for every kid in school but did not understand there is something called Linux.
We would have saved lot of money which went to US through Microsoft Windows, if we adopted Linux in Public sector.
But we did not.
By the way, the computer literacy is appalling and general understanding is if one knows the 25 letters of English and 10 numbers and a few equations, on a work sheet or log sheet in the monitor, that is wizardry.
For me writing a book for local guy or girl is a total waste.
It is for the global community.
Coming to Linux I started with Puppy Linux, graduated to Knoppix and ended up in Debian.
We had a clever guy by the name of Anuradha who is a wizard in Linux.
He could give the cordinates for a particular location in Ceylon very precisely, without the aid of a computer which President Putin would be jealous of, if he wants to send a missile to Ceylon for testing.
I do not know where he is now.
Somewhere on Top of Linux the Code.
I was going through all the Linux distribution written on CDs and DVDs to trace from where I started, apart from Puppy Linux and Knoppix.
I think Mepis Linux would have been my crunch or crux point.
Before that it was Redhat Linux from 7 to 9.
Then Mandtake Linux up to 9 and SuSe Linux.
I have tested from DSL to Nimble Linux to MX and 200 or more.
I still have copies my archive.
I did not count the number of CD/DVD probably 2000 half the book store of 4000 books.
I got the urge to burn them starting from Buddhist books eaten by white ants.
One of my friends stopped it and I found a cure for white ants.
I did not get stuck on one distribution.
I moved on.
There was Berry Linux and Turbo Linux from Japan.
Linpus from Singapore.
Calculate Linux from Russia.
Garuda Linux from ? Spain.
MultiSystem Linux from France.
CIA tried LPS and failed.
STUX from Israel to attack nuclear plant in Iran.
Linux magazine from Germany.
Hantana Linux and Ceylon Linux from Ceylon.
SuperOS from India.
Nothing from Malaysia.
Now DeepIn from China.
ChromeOS and Chrome Book have a special place.
Xandros true to emulate windows and failed.
The failure of Linux was due to these guys trying to go independent without a community.
Instead of tagging with Ubuntu or Debian these guys tried to reinvent the wheel and they failed.
Simply because they did not have a backup community unlike Redhat and SuSe.
I have not mentioned but tested Simply Memphis, Mint, Manjaro, PCLinux, Emmabantus, Elive, Elementary OS, EndlessOS and many more.
The strength of Linux is it's global community.
It will go from strength to strength.
I am going to burn all 32 bit CD and DVDs and Keep 64 distributions.
I will keep all Puppy Linux (of about 100) and Knoppix about 10 starting from 3.4 and currently at 9.1 in English.
I have stopped subscribing to the Linux Magazine to save money.
It comes from Germany and is the best.
Linux Torvalds is toying with kernel ? 15.1.12 and I would try it on new Intel's NUC.
NUC is pretty good.
Do not waste your time on Raspberry pi.
