“Xi Graphics is one of the many companies that do commercial
products on Linux. What was once GNU is now seeing many companies
hit the market with products said to be better than open source

solutions.”
“The day has long passed where Linux was an obscure operating
system with a following only including the elite of computing. Now,
with distributions like Red Hat and Mandrake, things are quickly
becoming easier and Linux is gaining the popularity it has fought
so long for. Some may blame the marketing and propaganda, or credit
it, but either way you look at it, Linux is getting big.”
“It’s disputable whether or not Linux has to tools to deal with
heavy 3D graphics, but all this will change soon.”
