5.5 reasons why people should try Linux!

1.Stability – The Linux operating system is probably the best option available if you are looking for stability on your computer. Most major distros come with stable kernel version that hardly ever crash. Unlike Windows it wont through errors at you or simply hang when you login everyday or every time you try run an application.

2.Security – Virus problems anyone? Do you spend most of your time scanning for worms in your HDD or choosing the right anti-virus? How about switching to a virus-free (theoretically debatable) computing environment. All I can say is that I am yet to come across my first virus problem ever since i made the switch. Besides this, distros provide comprehensive security updates covering every loop hole one can think of.

3.Software – what are you looking for? software to convert media files, a tool to edit photos or an IDE for writing your programs. Its all here and more almost any thing that your heart desires. Plus the packet management systems make installing software feel like shopping from your favorite mall.

4.Look and Feel – Lets face it Linux looks good! Both Gnome and KDE desktops are awesome looking and easy to use. They can be easily customized to match your taste. With Compiz you can create stunning 3D effects that will make your friends(windows) envy you.

5.Support– This I believe is the strongest part about Linux. Linux delivers its support mainly through its support forums. These highly efficient forums present in huge numbers and easily accessible to all. They are open to questions of all types and i have always found them to be very helpful towards newbies.

0.5 Its Free – Thats right its free. Free to get, use, change and share.
