My girlfriend is a Linux freak,WON'T use windows at all! I've watched her play with this OS for years so...
Ease of use,If you know computers fairley well
Cost,nothing you can download MANY distros off the net
uses computer resorces better than windows,requires less memory but uses cpu more.It uses a differnt type of cpu prossesing than Windows
will run on most Anything
if you are into gaming...forget it
Makes you look like a uber geek
like a Mac,Virus don't bother it(there arn't many for Linux)
Support,Being Open Sorce,LOTS!!!
Verisions...Way too many too count!
