These days every time I pass by the hostel warden's table, I see atleast two or three courier parcels containing Ubuntu or OpenSolaris of Kubuntu dvds. I can even find people talking about opensource technologies and other technical and non technical issues about opensource products. I found some computers on the LAN too with open source operating systems. It's hard to believe but its really happening in SASTRA. Some people can say this is all because of GLOSS while some others may say that its because the students are becoming knowledge hungry. I do not wish to find a reason for this but opensource is taking over everywhere in the world and this shift will have a very positive impact on the students. Now the companies coming for campus placements can expect better quality students and the students too can expect better companies. The management is also helping the students to move into opensource by building a new lab for opensource in Chith Vihar which is sponsored by Cognizant. Hats off to the management of SASTRA for coming up with such wonderful facilities and the students for their thirst for more knowledge!!!
It is time for the Left to reflect!

Hmmm ... I ordered the solaris DVD once, last year. I just have one advice for everyone. Don't forget to give ur hostel address wen u order some free cd, dvd ... I gave my department address (as in Final year, ITM, SASTRA) n i got the dvd some months later with a staff member (some pretty senior member), n it was opened, tried and tested !!!
