Hi,
A little more from my side too. Linux is/should be treated just like anyother Desktop OS. Like Unix and Windows , Linux can be made as a server with much more flexible environment . At the same time this OS has more more power as a Desktop OS as compared to any other operating system in the market. The strength lies in understanding and working with the utilities provided by the open source community. These are simple marvellous.
 Also the graphics resolution on the desktop of  this os is far better than Windows. Linux gives the feel of Unix and the easy of Windows- a perfect os.

Cheers,
Darshan

The trouble with life is, you're half way through it before you realize it's a "do it yourself" thing.
