More reasons to love Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu is running beautifully, all of my files are where I want them, I have 
| no DLLs to worry about, and it’s smooth sailing. And it looks as good as 
| ever, too.

Why I Use Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Speaking of pricing, that leads me to my final point of this article. Just 
| why do so many people pay a hundred or two dollars for Microsoft to hassle 
| them? Is the product really that worth it? Most Linux distributions are free 
| and even the ones that aren’t generally cost only a fraction of what 
| Microsoft charges. There is no activation routine either. You buy it or 
| download it, and you use it at your leisure. Sure, Linux may not run every 
| application that Windows does, but there are amazing Linux apps that haven’t 
| been ported to Windows either.

Linux Live CDs: Why I love them.

,----[ Quote ]
| So what did we learn? Linux is a very versatile operating system that can run
| on just about any hardware, with any configuration. Most importantly, GO GET
| THE LIVE CD. It will save your ass someday and you will be glad that you
| burned that disc.

Why I chose GNU/Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| The reason GNU/Linux makes sense to me is that I am a big fan of the “Free
| software” ideal. I like the fact that I can take my software and change it to
| work for me and that is completely legal. I like that I can freely distribute
| the code to anyone I want. I also like knowing that there are people who see
| things the same way are there to protect my rights (FSF). I use GNU/Linux out
| of a desire to live free and without the threat of someone installing a
| rootkit or a spy program to make sure I am using it the way the company who
| made it want me to.
