Linux used to be for geeks. Not any more. With Fedora and Ubuntu on the first quadrant, Linux has become an operating system that is for everyone.
Why is Linux better than Windows?
In my blog I always praise Linux for several reasons. Let me list out a few points.
1. It is Open Source. You can customize it as you like.
2. It developed by a team of people just like you and me. You can give bug reports to the development which will certainly be reviewed, you can design graphics, and you can be an alter-ego to the OS, while with Windows, you cannot be anything more than a consumer.

3. Windows is full of bugs, that can be fixed only by the developers. In linux, you are the developer. You can either fix it yourself and put up the fix for distribution, or wait for someone else to do it, as you will find people rushing up to get it done.
4. Linux has no intentionally placed bugs as in Windows.
5. Possiblity of virus infection of your computer is almost 0 when compared with that of Windows. No virus scanner is required, and that leaves your PC with a lot more resources.
6. Linux is a lot more Stable than Windows. Has got great security and is very strong, and no one can really hack into your PC.
