| With Linux that is not only possible it is also very easy. In the space of a
| couple of keyclicks you can effectively transform your computer into a
| totally different environment. For an example. I have always been a KDE type
| of person. Yet if you have read my previous articles I have played around
| with ion3, fluxbox, ratpoisen, openbox and I am now using Xfce. Why? Because
| I wanted a change from my daily computing experience, because it was fun. I
| will probably give gnome another run and then try some other window managers
| or desktop environments.

Ubuntu, Fedora, Mandriva, OpenSuse .. does it really matter?

| More often it's just a personal choice, a way to express our ideas and
| thoughts, and most importantly the desire to support and encourage the
| community and the open-source movement. So the next time when you try a new
| distro, whatever it be, feel proud of being a part of it. Thanks for reading.

More distros = more choice

| With more than 300 active distributions (distros), Linux is on a roll. Linux
| distros primarily differ in terms of features since they are built on
| variants of the same kernel (32-bit/64-bit; with various features of the
| kernel enabled or disabled). “All the Linux distributions come from the same
| upstream kernel and what distinguishes each distribution is how they provide
| support, get ISVs to certify the ISV applications on the specific
| distribution, and how IHVs (Independent Hardware Vendor) get to do the same,”
| feels Nandu Pradhan, President & Managing Director, Red Hat India.
