Una delle difficoltà che s’incontrano nel passare da Windows a Gnu-Linux è la paura di non avere programmi a cui si è abituati o almeno equivalenti. Questa non è altro che una leggenda metropolitana, portata avanti da chi ha il monopolio assoluto e vorrebbe la morte dell’opensource. Certo su un professionista che per lavoro usa Photoshop piuttosto che Gimp, non c’è nulla da dire, ma tutti gli altri che usano Photoshop per correggere le proprie fotografie o gli occhi rossi, mi fanno soltanto ridere, e mi fanno pensare…. che se avessero dovuto comprarlo, col cazzo che lo avrebbero usato. Il software si paga, dato che c’è gente dietro che ci lavora, oppure bisognerebbe affidarsi all’opensource che di programmi ne ha tanti, non dimenticandosi che free non significa gratis, poiche anche in questo mondo vi sono programmi professionali a pagamento. Sotto alcuni esempi tratti da linuxalt.
