Comment The crusade for Linuxdom isn't over yet (Score 1) 173
Japan is a developed country; its people have enough money to pay for their own computer and software. The open source charactoristic doesn't give much advantage over those heavily commercialized OS's. Moreover, those OS's can easily fight back by innovating or lowering of their prices.
What Linux distributions should focus on are those developing countries. In many of those countries, the piracy rate is so high that it literally effects the nation's economy. Linux can be cheaply distributed in those countries and easily replace their pirating market. The success of this will benefit both the developing country and Linuxdom.
