Guys, I'm creating this thread to check if any Linux peoples are present in here!
For those, who haven't used Linux ever, and those who thinks that Linux is difficult to use, limited in functionality or the mind-set that you can't use it, I wanns let you know:
* Linux is not an Operating System! It's just a small piece of program works at the heart of the operating system.
* GNU is the project started by Rechard Stallman to make a FREE OPERATING SYSTEM. Freedom to share the soure code, Freedom to change the source code as per your need. In 1992, Linux was included in the GNU operating system and it's touching new heights nowadays!
* Many GNU/Linux distributions are present out there, it depend on you for what you gonna use it so choose wisely when you'll go for it. However, if you are an average user, I recommend you to go for Ubuntu (www.ubuntu.com).
Or If you are a real noob for the Computer, you can go for Mint (www.linuxmint.com).
Even a little kid can use it, why you can't!
* The biggest advantage of using GNU/Linux over Windows is the Security and the stability. Let me know you that world's 95% Supercomputer are running Linux operating system!
* As Linux is an Open Source Software, you can modify it to suite your needs! Linux is used from small watched to Supercomputers(As I said before). Android is growing, which is running a Linux kernel! With Linux, I promise you, 0 Virus, 0 Malwares, 0 Adwares, and 0 whatever that stuff you get with Windows. And that's WITHOUT ANY ANTIVIRUS, OR ANY SECURITY SUITE!!!
I have been using GNU/Linux from last one and half years. And I wonder when I see peoples using Windows, it just sucks. I pity you if you are running Windows.
