Linux is an operating system, it serve the same function as windows (common Pc) and mac osX (apple pc), but unlike windows and osX linux is open source. Open source means coding and script of the operating system is freely available for anyone thus leading to hundreds of linux variants or famously known as distros. One can choose among the those hundreds distros which suit their taste best. This is why linux is exciting, you can came up with a lot of possibilities.
Most people afraid of using linux as i metioned in the previous post, but technically there is nothing to be afraid of. From technical insight linux in my personal humble opinion is way better compared to windows. Linux boot faster, simpler, and the most important thing is linux does not contains many addwares and unnecessary software. Now back to the amazing part, have you ever imagine booting (loading) an operating system from usb tumbdrive or even memory card? Impossible right?. With linux booting from usb tumbdrive and memory card is possible.
Another shocking fact is that the whole operating system can be as small as 60-70 Mb compared to 1-3 Gb for winXP and 5-10 Gb for vista? Some linux distros fly in a computer with RAM memory lower than 100 Mb but for vista you need atleast 2Gb if you want your computer do tasks swiftly. these are among many other reason for giving the title amazing to linux operating system. How do i know all these facts? As i told you before i've been using linux for 2 months and i must say i am impressed. The version that i currently use is 70 Mb and i boot it from my usb tumbdrive. With this 70 Mb i got word processor, excel, web browser, media player and many more and the coolest thing is i put all of these in my tumbdrive..can you believe that?
