“Andover.Net…today unveiled an industry survey on the Linux
operating system and announced Linux.DaveCentral.com, an
easy-to-use Linux application archive site. Andover.Net polled
information technology professionals on Linux, Microsoft and the
future of the Internet. The results show a resounding awareness and
approval for Linux and a movement to the new operating system that
is bound to raise eyebrows from Wall Street to Redmond,

the easiest to use Linux online archive, containing more
applications than any CD currently provided to users by Linux
resellers…”
