2021 will be the year of Linux on the desktop

No, really? We have never heard that before

Open source advocate Jack Wallen predicts 2021 will be a year where open source technology dominates the world of big data even more than 2021, with a big role predicted for SUSE.

Writing in Techrepublic, Wallen thinks that businesses will cut costs by switching to open source solutions — including a big move to Linux on enterprise desktops, thanks to enterprise-ready options now available from System76, Lenovo, and Dell.

He said that this will have the added benefit of even more companies jumping into the mix and offering more and more desktops and laptops, all powered by Linux and open source technology.

Wallen predicts that System76 will finally gain the recognition it has deserved for so many years. Linux on the desktop would not be where it is today, had it not been for their stalwart support for open source technology. Year after year, System76 has proved that high quality, business-class systems, powered by Linux, can be produced at a level befitting the enterprise, he wrote.
