2901 BenHi BBC, My entire family use Linux as their primary OS. I find it hard to believe that my entire family are a whole 2% of your Linux visitors.
2902 michael hallI use ubuntu and my kids are always on the BBC web site!
2903 D RobinsonI use Suse. So do my entire family. And we all 'pretend' to be IE so that fascist sites will allow us in. I fail to understand why we are having this discussion: isn't platform-independent software agreed by all to be a Good Thing?
2904 Chris RobinsonJust the sort of nonsense that needs to be shut down from the very beginning

2907 Julian SewardI access BBC news online from from Linux systems (openSUSE and Fedora) and have done so every day for years. I know four other people who do the same. Shame on the BBC for not supporting open standards - you should know better.

2909 C Armour-BrownExtremely frustrating
2910 Michel MouffantYet more lies from the BBC - the state broadcaster - a monstrous propaganda outfit - steered by social engineering mind-benders at the Tavistock Institute. If the BBC blocks Linux, it really will be a blessing in disguise. It's time to pull the life support machine on "Auntie" - the wretched hag deserves not a penny more of our money. And since the sewerhole output of the BBC was built on OUR money, it can damn well be opened up to free access to all. We paid for it, we own it. So that means we get unfettered access to every second of video and audio. Let's just see all that airbrushed footage and interviews, hidden from sight because it doesn't fit comfortably with the British Establishment worldview.

2919 Tack MartinHello and a good understanding to everyone , first I'm not in the UK ,this fact excludes me . The BBC has a World Edition ,this Includes me. As a Belgium with some interest in News & History & Libraries & Science ,I look around for differant opinions and insights. Thereby I give ,for free ,my toughs and ideas. Maybe ,the BBC is no Longer interested ,to broacast there point of view into the world. Somme considerations : Africa doesn't have the money for expensive fee's on proprietary software . They are however moving very rapidly to IT The same is true for China ,and in fact the rest of Asia. Even in Europe ,the less connected nations at this time (Eastern Europe, Russia), are now very vastly going on ( 2X ,3X /year ). All of this expansion ,is not going to sell much of proprietary soft ,for a lot of good reasons. Maybe its a good view of politics , to make such a distinction between the haves and the have not I use several Linux /Gnu distros . And I try to be helpful in spreading knowledge . Yours sincerely Martin Tack
2920 Martin JonesI pay my licence fee just like somebody using the US monopoly's software. I don't have to own a particular make of TV to watch TV - why do I have to run a particular computer operating system? You're a public broadcaster - start behaving like one and stop behaving like a supporter of a company which is *again* being investigated by the EU for anti-competitive behaviour.

2922 AnonymousI use the BBC websites daily. I love downloading radio podcasts in linux and I would love to be able to pay to use the iPlayer outside of the UK to watch all the bbc channels. Fedora 7
2923 Daniel JonesI use Linux, and I pay my licence fee. You can create a client for the iPhone, why the hell not for Linux?

2927 AnonymousAs a publicly funded body you must provide open access to your services. Locking yourself into a cosy arrangement with American monopolists is not the way ahead. Adhere to open international standards please.
2928 ZwartijHi there in the UK. looking for quality information I also look at the BBC site, with my Linux-pc and open source browser(s) off course!
