What is Linux? Enlighten yourself...


What is Linux? This was and is the question that arises in the minds of a lot of computer users rather windows and macintosh users. I am one of them. I sometimes feel why isn't there any other operating system which could beat windows in user interface and be lovable by millions. I can't accept mac as an answer. So, I am still searching for one good OS.


A friend of mine says that my search would end with Linux. I said what? What the hell is Linux? He laughed at my ignorance and said use it to know it. I just wrote off his words and continued with windows. But not too far in time Linux has slowly started to conquer the computing world.


Linux is a free open-source alternative to Windows and Macintosh. millions of programmers around the world work to improve Linux with their free time. They've worked hard to bring Linux to maturity, and as of the past couple years, it has reached a mature stage where the average computer user is more than capable of using it. In other words, you no longer need to know how a computer works or how to program in order for Linux to be useful to you.
