After the Linux Ubuntu, I accidentally found out that there is a Linux based Operating System made by our Fellowmen. The Bayanihan Linux. I immediately downloaded the Image File on their website - http://www.bayanihan.gov.ph/. Bayanihan Linux is the product of collaborations and cooperative work of talented IT Pinoys. If you want to know more how this O.S., visit their website here - http://www.bayanihan.gov.ph/index.php/about-us/the-project.
Free and Open Source Software, also known as FOSS, is a good alternative to other Commercial Software especially to schools offering Computer Education Class who cannot afford to buy too expensive softwares. Using FOSS in classroom instructions is not different from other commercial softwares. So in order for my students and other computer users understand more about FOSS, I made a simple tutorials in O.S. Installations (Linux Bayanihan), and Applications Software reviews.
