Switch from windows to linux

I am writing this blog for them who wants to switch Windows to LINUX .

But before going to the Linux you must be known about the basics of the Linux.

When I was in B.tech first year I came to know about the Linux first time through a workshop of Nibble Computer Society of my college Which taken by one of the senior. It was the workshop which made me interested towards Linux.

I switched to the Linux due to the following reason....

I had a IBM desktop which cd rom was not working (due to my merciless experiments over it) and its motherboard does not support the usb booting so i was in a great trouble because windows got corrupted every 25-30 days it was very big problem with me to format the system with borrowed cd rom
So After attending the workshop I came to know about the linux which gets corrupted very rarely then i decided to install the linux in my pc. In starting I faced many problem because I had no internet connecton which is very much required for the linux installed system but afterwards it became normal to me.

Now I enjoy the linux so much that I never dare to open the windows even because of the so many features of the linux.


Now I discuss the some of the features of linux over windows.....

1. The first thing of it, I like, is freely available and whole world contributes for its improvement so it is better as compare to the paid windows where a limited Engineers with limited minds works over it.

2. Require the least hardware ( a linux can run over 64MB of RAM, 512MB HD, and very low resolution monitor)

3. Can run for long time without restart or reboot of the system so good for the server puropse....

4. More secure as compare to the windows.

5. No fear of the virus threats and rarely get corrupted or hanged up.

6. Less risk of data lose due to power cuts as compare to the windows.

7. Whole source code is available so you can modify it according to your wish.

8. Supports multi user and multitasking.

9. Have a good interaction with hardware.

8. Now linux is available in various distro with very intacting gui even(like fedora,ubuntu,redhat,mendriva etc.).

After all this why should we go for windows(wasting of money). And I am sure that once you experience the linux you won't go back to the windows as myself.....I really hate windows.
