Any LINUX Fans???

This thread is for people who use Linux and prefer it over the old n boring windows...
Please post comments about Linux and its use...it might help for its promotion..lol

And also, people who want to try it, but did not get chance/time to install it.

FYI: The servers on which your site is hosted is Linux based... but why you still prefer windows for your PC???
You can do alot of things which can give your business a boost on Linux but not on the crappy windows.

Waiting for the replies...

 

glad to see someone other than me who is using linux here...
well yes windows is good for gaming...but if you see for the serious (non-gamers, i mean) user, Linux is obviously better.
The most important aspect being, it is free of viruses.

 

I am getting ready to do my first install of linux, any suggestions or good advice?

 

Yep. If its your first time start of with Ubuntu

 

currently i'm working on SuSE 10.3 but i've got Slackware 12.0 also (which i like more)...
though i've tried a lot of them..

 

do not go for automatic partitioning...get an expert to partition your hard drive for linux, otherwise you might end up loosing your data.

 

I got a yard sale computer for $10 to do it on,

My computer skill aren’t that sharp and I can’t afford to mess up my work computer.

Thanks, I was wondering which one I should try.

 

I'm not a fan .. I'm a linux user .. windows sux.

 

I think I am the Biggest Fan of Linux I love Fedora and currently using Ubuntu 8.04 Lts for test

 

I think linux is good for certain things like running servers and windows is good for other things like running desktops

 

debian but it comes you with a lot of problems.. i dont think it is for last users..

if you wonder linux systems.. you must start with ubuntu !

 

You probably think so because you have never used Linux.

 

How can I get linux on my Dell?

 

I use Windows XP. That doesn't mean I'm a Windows fan, it's just that I don't need anything else.

 

I am Linux Fan, but these days I am using Windows XP,
thanks

 

if you'll be new at linux, i suggest ubuntu..

http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download

you can use ubuntu + windows together.. it's installiation is very easy and simple.. it's using your empy disk space.. and you dont miss your winxP or data on it..

 

I prefer CentOS and uBuntu. Both are virus free.. windows is not for me..

 

I dont use linux but i am fan of it.. I see that my RAM is more efficient there. I saw it when i installed UBUNTU and also in a live CD
