Linux : The cool factor

,----[ Quote ]
| Compiz
| 
| I know It's like kicking in an open door. I think almost every Linux desktop 
| user knows what compiz is and that's because it's one of the coolest things 
| you'll ever see when it comes to desktops.  
| But not everybody does, and sometimes I still do impress a Linux user with my 
| desktop. If your not a Linux user there's a big change you want to become one 
| when you see what you can do with it.  
| 
| Compiz provides you with Hardware-accelerated window management and desktop 
| compositing through OpenGL. 
| 
| Impressive, aint it? No seriously, I understand if you're not a technical 
| person the previous sentence says about nothing. But you know youtube don't 
| you? Compiz is so cool, people even post video's showing it off on youtube. 
| So go there do a search for compiz and be stunned by the incredible desktop 
| effects you can have when you run Linux. It's actually the most advanced 
| desktop environment available today. And it runs on Linux!
