Final Exam/Final Discussion

Here's what you'll need to know for the Final:

Know your basic vi commands.
Basic Unix/Linux commands(Assignment 3)
Linux directory/file structure
Loading arguments from a command line into a script
basic script routines

Of course, feel free to use any resource at your disposal.

You'll have 30 minutes to complete the Final and it'll be worth 100pts, you'll have one chance to take it, and it must be completed before Saturday, Aug. 8th.

Your final discussion:
You've had a chance this semester to explore the Open Source Community, as well as an opportunity to experience Linux and the idea of "Cloud Computing" first hand. Reading your discussion postings, everyone here has their own opinion of Linux and validity of Open Source - to the point where I'd swear some of you are on Blue Screen of Death's payroll.

Here's your chance to voice your opinion on what you think the future of Linux is, what's missing? What's the key hindrance keeping Linux from breaking into the mainstream?

I've really enjoyed reading your postings this summer, it's given me a better perspective on my admitted biases.

Thanks for a great summer!
Charlie
