Linux boosting memberships

Linux boosting memberships

Linux, the software company which has produced far bigger number of editions of its software than others has just made a step to boost the Linux membership. This will surely work because Linux is just getting popular and is used by some governments and many business people. The thing is what they plan to do is to offer new perks to individual members.
Linux fondation is basically giving a lifetime e-mail account and hardware discounts to its members. So if you are not yet a member of the Linux fundation just join them now. Hardware discounts include some better prices from its partner groups and those are mostly Dell, HP, and Lenovo. For example to get a Linux based discount from Dell just point your browser to dell.com/ubuntu. It is some 7% of discount so for 100 Euros you will save some 30 Euros. So it is pretty much amazing. Also you can get O’Reilly and No Starch Press books, Linux Journal Subscriptions, and some ThinkGeek.com purchases.
Membership that is 99 dollars worth is very fast returned back to you since the prices are very good with discounts.
The lifetime email includes an email address at @linux.com. So you get some very good domain name with your email account. The organization is maintained by lots of members and that also includes Linus Torvalds.
Because of the financial crisis some organizations were trying to get more members with their special offers and Linux is one of them and surely is giving some good discounts. This is only one of the many Linux great offers so if you are not already a member of this organization you can join anytime and have many great features related to technology, Linux and Computers. Linux is one of the most popular computer operating systems and we will just mention some of its distributions: Puppy, CentOS, Ubuntu, DamnSmallLinux, Debian, Knoppix, Xubuntu, Gentoo, Fedora, OpenSuSe and many more.
