Can Linux Save IT Jobs in America?
| Can Linux Save IT Jobs in America??
|
As computer jobs have been diluted in the U.S. with lay-offs and being sent
away to other countries, the implementation of Linux has hardly slowed down.
Linux, originally of foreign origins, is quickly becoming the operating system
to keep
jobs in America.
In the 80s and mid-90s, it was computer people that made Netware the dominant
server operating system, and it was also computer people that overturned the
Netware operating system with NT because Microsoft offered a cheaper
alternative, promising higher wages for all those that became MCSEs. At the very
first sign of economic decline these same people were the first sacrificed and
lost their jobs to cheaper wages and alternative methods of outsourcing.
Monopolizing on the fears of corporate America, many companies like Microsoft
began to market their new product line on the premise that purchasing their
software will allow you to reduce your IT department even further. Or at least
that's the impression that is given from the Windows 2003 commercials.
