Online quiz helps Linux newbies
Norwegian open-source consultancy Zegenie Studios has created an online quiz that helps new users decide which version of Linux to install.
Zegenie Studios says its quiz is attracting up to 40,000 hits a day, mainly from home users or company employees seeking advice on which Linux distribution best meets their needs, reports News.Com.
The quiz asks questions such as whether participants plan to use wireless devices, how they rate their technical skills and whether they are installing the operating system on a desktop or portable computer.
Once the quiz is complete, the application recommends one particular Linux distribution and lists a number of alternative distributions, along with the criteria they failed on.
