Buntfu.com - Linux PC Computer Systems
Submitted by buntfu on Sat, 2010-02-20 00:32
I started Buntfu.com a few years ago now. I had the idea well before that but had not had the opportunity to launch it. I started off with the idea that with Linux being at the point of everyday usability and the learning curve to do so had diminished so dramatically, which made Linux more accessible to the average user. Also taking into account not needing a license to load the OS on any computer, it really opens the doors to the small company and average person who has one or a few old or new computers to sell.
They can now sell a complete working PC with a beautiful stable OS that handles everyday tasks no problem and has equivalent software for just about everything most users will ever need. Not needing to bank roll licensing fees or buying individual copies of an operating system to load on a computer you have for sale allows you to compete on price and still make a profit. Regardless of the business side of the idea, I really wanted to figure out a way an average guy like myself could really help contribute to the promotion and use of open-source software. Totally from a moral and ethical standpoint this is something I'm not only passionate about but something that I believe needs to be done for the good of everyone and our digitally dependent future. I've always appreciated the listings from the current companies that have trusted myself and the site enough to showcase their Linux or BSD computers for sale here.
