Why linux?
dmaan:
Why should I use linux when I am doing well in windows.? Why should I hate windows as they are the most widely available.?
dalek:
Question one: If you want a rented OS, use windoze. If you want a OS that is controlled by somebody else then go ahead, use windoze. If you want a OS that you control and that you can customize to the limit of your ability, use Linux. If you don't like Linux, use windoze.
Question two: That one almost answers itself. Viruses. Almost 90% of viruses and trojans etc are for windoze. Of those that are for Linux, very very few are sucessful. A well setup Linux system is very hard to break into, not impossible, just hard to do.
I watched everybody scramble during the last virus. Ringing their hands on if they would make it through or not. I had to go show them how to reduce the risk of the virus and tell them not to open e-mail attachments. While I was there, I forwarded myself one of those viruses just to see it. No problems here.
I have a question or two for you. You ever heard of a Mac user getting hit by a virus? Linux? Do you like the stability of windoze? I have heard and read about Linux systems running for months even years without a reboot. Do that with windoze 98, 2000 or dream about with Melinium. You can install the vast majority of software without a reboot. You can't sneeze in windoze without rebooting.
What do you think now? I'm not going to tell you to switch. That is your decision to make. I LOVE Linux. I hate windoze and what M$ does to other companies that compete. I'm not saying that M$ should shut down but they should change the practices they use.
Hope you have something to think about.
Later
:D :D :D :D

Well that is not a good manner. After all it is M$ who has brought the use of computer at home almost every where.
But you are right that LInux is so customizable..
That's Why I Too Say
I LOVE LINUX

"Well that is not a good manner." Well I bet if you were to start a business to have M$ come and tell you to sell or else, you would probably see that differently. They did that to a lot of people. Remember the lawsuit?
Yes M$ did a lot for computers. I had a job for a while that kept us real busy. We were re-installing windoze after the big crash and restoring the data that was not lost. That happened a lot.
What did they do again that was so good? Should have waited on Linux. Fewer bugs spreading around.
:D :D :D :D
Mod edit: This was my post and it said guest. Strange.
