Linux Developers Start Poaching Microsoft Users After Windows 7 End of Support
Author: Softpedia News (Bogdan Popa, Microsoft News Editor)Windows 7 has officially reached the end of support, so users running it have three options to choose from: stick with Windows 7 and face the obvious security risks, upgrade to newer Windows, or migrate to a non-Windows platform.
As far as the last option goes, Linux distro makers know how big this opportunity really is, so they started poaching Windows 7 users in an attempt to increase their install base.
After Canonical tried to lure Windows 7 users to install Ubuntu , a number of Korean companies developing their own custom Linux distros have launched similar campaigns specifically supposed to convince Microsoft customers to make the switch.
Tmax, which builds TmaxOS, Hancom, the maker of Gurem, and Invesume, the developing company of open-source OS HamoniKR, are all aiming to convert Windows users to their own platforms.
