If your reading this your most likely using Windows. Almost everyone uses it so it’s good, right? WRONG!
It might be OK for the people that wouldn’t know a monitor from a computer, but the a-bit-over-average-user might have noticed that Windows, be it ‘98, 2000, ME, XP, VIsta, whatever,is not so great as they’d like to think.
Why is this? I’ll tell you why… Do you ever wonder that after you bought a new Computer with the newest greatest XP on it that after a couple of months it slows down? Have you noticed that sometimes for no apperent reason the computer get’s terribly slow and the red light is blinking on the front of the computer? Have you ever gotton a “Send error Report” error? and often? Do you have to spend $$ to update your anti-spyware and maintain it a lot? Do you have viruses? Do you have to buy a new copy of windows for every new computer you get? Do you have to pay hundreds of dollers for Microsoft Office?
If you answered “yes” to some of these questions than you are “dependent” on Microsoft. Why should you give them your money and time if you can get something better for free.
Your probably wondering what it is, or maybe not. I use it and I can satisfactorily answer “NO” to all of the above questions.
It’s “Linux“, Ok that wikipedia article might not look very cool, but this might help you understand it better. Read up and get into the computer revolution!
