Well, *might* be true! introduced to Linux as it was related the syllabus.
Didn't quite think too much about that! Duh!!
[snip] guess it makes no sense using *nix while not knowin nythin abt the beauty that lies @ the core.....most of the times students make use of the O.S. just cause they r forced to do so...not 'cause they hav a passion for doin so.
Introducin Open Source/Linux to the students and cultivatin an interest during the college years will spark off talent in the right direction......there's lot of talent out there......only waitin for us to channel it in the right direction, give them the choices before they r forced to pursue carrers on technology ain't worth a dime, all cause there WASN'T SOME1 TO SHOW THEM THE WAY....
