This was a comment from Mauro Xavier PortalCriatia Coordinator of the Linux solution for Internet cafe, one of its most popular and Cyber ​​Café Manager LanBR

One of our friends complain about the difficulty of being legalized in Brazil against unfair competition that using pirated products and without any concern with safety and or quality.

"Surely, my friends.

I know very well how complicated it is to be legalized. When I started with the first Internet café in Linux in the country in September 2003, things were complicated. I was also beginning to make LanBr (manager) and MANY THINGS not rolled, but I stood rowing against the tide as I could.

In 2006 I sold only to play lan design solution lans on Linux (because it could not play everything at once), and even today is Lan House Creative activities and uses Linux hence are almost 6 years using Linux on the same lan.
If I had problems? LOGICAL ... The competitors all wore pirate games, Windows etc etc, or paid taxes, obeyed the counsel or guardian, did not care.

And in the end, all fell, but the Lan House Creative is there, following the law, registering all customers using legalized gaming, using Linux and paying taxes. It is not mine anymore, but it is like a son who now walks alone, and best, the owner became a great friend and always what shall I go there to test non-public versions LanBr.

Fight! Do not be discouraged! Do not do anything against your competitors, AND KNOW WHY?

Our biggest competitor is the one that appears in the mirror every day ... OURSELVES. To win is to overcome every day in all stages of life, making sure that God takes care of the righteous, and faith is something that must be unshakable (otherwise, there is faith!).

Forget those who are working wrong, right to work, to differentiate themselves, be creative, and do not give up EVER. If out of this branch, which is to prosper and expand into something that is best for you, and never below it.

And for those who need support in linux free for lans and manager LanBr, simply access the free Creative Club Portal:

A big hug to everyone. "
