The first was that it was open-source. The second advantage was it had Linus Torvalds."

"Microsoft's aim is to put OS on every desktop.
Mac's aim is to put the most beautiful GUI on every desktop.
No offence but...........
What is Linux OS's aim???"
Linux doesn't aim to claim users, if Linux is useful then use it, if it's not dont. People tell me they heard Linux is stable, virus free and secure by default, thats why people use Linux and it's aim is to be used.
I always find that osnews after the onslaught of Vista articals, likes to find something good to say about Linux.
