Why to get linux...
#1

Ok, I wanted to start this to prove that Linux has the advantage.

If you have more reasons or a comment..POST IT!! THIS IS A FORUM! lol

-------

reasons:

 

1. Its FREE! OK, I know that sometimes free things are not great, But Linux is.

Why? Well, for one its Open-Source, Well what is open-source?

Basically, open source software is made for the use, not profit.

Its made to work and work VERY well, not to make money.

Now i know what your thinking, "If they don't have alot of money from sales then how can they make something good?"

The answer is funding and sponsorship, and just old fasion donations from people who use it.

(btw, these projects NEED MONEY,OR SOMEONE TO SPREAD THE WORD! too many people just don't give a truck and are just taking from the community!)

True open-source may be more complicated than that but that is the basics.

 

2. Its an extremely stable operating system. It is all about working right! I ask you, Why is Windows so popular? Because it is the best? HELL NO.

Its because they have ALOT of money, ao they can advertise, and make most computer users out there (who tend to have no idea what an OS even is) think that either;

windows is all there is, or that nothing else is any good. Then after that, they get companies to make games and software work only with the OS.

After that they basically sue anyone who makes a better replacement for all that software.

 

3. It looks great: Ok ok, yes Vista looks a little better. Its Aero is pretty, BUT ITS SLOW, UNSTABLE,INSCURE...you know what is you use vista then you KNOW ALL THE BS! So you think, where can i go to get something that looks better, and still works better.....umm.....Linux? YES LINUX

But Linux by itself isn't really that pretty, enter Beryl.

Here are a few pics of beryl:
