There is a lot of misinformation floating around out there about Linux, some of it intentionally spread to confuse or scare you into not investigating Linux as an alternative for your servers, workstations and desktops. Setting the record straight about these misconceptions and combatting FUD is the first half of our purpose.
The second is to keep ourselves and others who are fans and boosters of Linux honest and free from the same kinds of prejudices and lies about other operating systems.
