VIMEO PICK OF THE MONTH #2 - THINK DIFFERENT

I would like to start this video as Mike Shinoda does in the Remember The Name highlight reel version by Fort Minor- "This video is dedicated to and inspired by regular people that do amazing things. Thank you guys for being a part of this video."
The people at Apple, Inc have always been benchmark setters in case of innovation and in playing art with technology. They have always seemed to stick to their tagline "Think Different" and so they do with every product and service they come up with.
The above video is one of the best featured video commercials till date by any company across the globe. This video was launched by Apple, Inc in the year 1998 and secured several awards including the Emmy Award by the Academy of Telivision Arts & Science (ATAS) and the Effy Award for Marketing Effectiveness.
Transcript (Subtitles):
(Voice of Richard Dreyfuss)
Here's to the Crazy Ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They’re not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them,
glorify or vilify them.
But the only thing that you can’t do, is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They push the human race forward.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world,
are the ones who do.

5 REASONS WHY ONE MUST SWITCH TO LINUX

As of now, it has been long time that I have been writing a good host of articles regarding open source softwares. In succession to them, here I support another open source software. The only point of consideration here is that this one is not an application software but a system software. Most of the visitors reading this article would suposedly be Windows users. But supposedly they don't know that there's something better waiting for them- Linux.
