If you’re looking to break the hold Microsoft has on you computer, a new software-sharing group called the Linux Users Group might have the solution.

Users should have the right to modify your software and not have it confined to corporate development, said Carl Caum, Linux Systems Administrator for the computer sciences department.

“One reason this started was we were all computer science majors,” said Michael O’Brien, senior computer science major and club member.

Although the club mostly comprises computer science majors, O’Brien said a major goal is to incorporate users from different disciplines.
