Are you aware of the different Operating Systems available?

Over in the Jaiku branch of this club, an interesting conversation sprang up around the advantages of Windows vs Linux. Now, many people quite obviously know about Windows, it permeating the computer world so heavily, but few have been exposed to Linux. Linux is a free operating system licensed under the GNU GPL, and as such called GNU/Linux, which is based around the Linux core with several GNU tools used to help it function. There are several different desktop environments, all of which are incredibly customizable, so no matter if you're a Windows or Mac user, you can feel right at home in it. Here's a funny little video which might explain this in a format which many are already familiar with (Mac ads). Don't forget to browse the conversation through the link posted above and join in on the conversation over at Jaiku.
