Linux or open source?

Dana Blankenhorn from Znet writes:

"The name of this blog is "Linux and open source" but the question Microsoft wants you to ask yourself is, simply, Linux or open source?

While Linux is an open source operating system, it's not always free. There is a lot of free open source for Windows. It's quite easy to have both open source and Windows. I do. You probably do, too.

In such an environment, the battle comes down, again, to where will you find the applications you most want and need?"
