Read This Before Dumping Vista

As everyone knows, windows has just released windows vista. Many people, such as you, may have noticed that there are some “problems” with windows vista. The only alternative to windows vista is the operation system leopard, but is it really?

If you are reading this then I can assume that you wish to switch to a Macintosh computer. Problem is a Macintosh and other products are overpriced for the convenience of a new operating system. Why pay anything, when you can get a whole new operating system for free.

Linux it is the number one alternative to Microsoft windows. You may think this is strange because so many people use a Macintosh. Surprisingly though there is an estimated 36 million users of Linux based operating systems.

How about I talk to you about the history of Linux so you can learn what it is really all about. Linus Torvalds he is the mastermind behind the Linux kernel. The Linux kernel is the base of Linux it is developed through another small OS called UNIX. Macintosh and windows both have a UNIX base. Pretty much what it means is that they both interpret the OS into 1's and 0's and the computer can do with it as it wants. What makes the operating systems different is how the OS interprets software into software that the UNIX base can translate into 1's and 0's.

Now in the modern days of computers Linux has made a major jump. Now Linux makes up hundreds of operating systems such as Ubuntu Linux, open suse, or gentoo Linux. There are many operating systems and they all do what they need to do. It pretty much depends on your preference.

If you like the way Macintosh looks or if you like how windows vista looks then don't worry. Linux, unlike any other operating system, is 100% customizable. You can use programs such as Compiz Fusion and you can turn your Linux into nothing short of amazing! So many options await you all you have to do is change to Linux and you will never regret it!

Last if you don t believe me then watch this video it turned me onto Linux.
