Running EB on Linux
Blogger Stefanos Evangelou complains that certain apps aren’t available on Linux and that that makes him unable to free himself from Windows tyranny. The Britannica encyclopedia is one of the apps he mentions (although he doesn’t specify what version).
While it doesn’t quite say so on the box, the fact is that the Britannica CD products run quite well on Linux. You can find instructions for running the Britannica CD/DVD on Linux at http://support.britannica.com/linux/linux.htm, although it looks like those need to be updated for the 2006 edition which became available eariler this month.
