This, a million times. So many people have look at Linux without even trying it. They just read information about it, or some rant about a bad distro, and they chalk it up as a PoS. ___ I'm contemplating getting my family onto Linux—replace all the machines in the house with Linux. The problem with Linux is that it's still being worked on, so to speak. I don't mean to say it is this blob in which more and more goo is added, but rather that there are so many options already made, being made, and planned due to how open it is. That said, looking at Linux in the Computer Science industry (including Business and E-Commerce and blah blah blah), it's most definitely the more favourable operating system. That said, I'm sure none of you have any care for that application of Linux, so I will carry on. There are so many easy-to-use (user-friendly) distributions of Linux that anybody who picks up a random distro nowadays wouldn't have a problem using it in the least (that in mind, I'd like to think more than half the online/PC-gaming community hasn't even installed their own copy of Windows, but rather had it done for them). The issue is, obviously, gaming. I'm predicting Linux will be the platform for gaming in the next, say, 6-10 years, perhaps sooner. Steam is making such a big push for gaming on Linux with the Steam platform for Linux as well as the Steambox which runs Linux (think of the operating system for the Steambox as a distribution of Linux (which it is, really) that Steam has created). Of course, at this point in time, the games on Steam for Linux are, for the most part, Valve games as well as some indie titles which their respective developers felt would be a great addition to the Linux system as well as its community. I can see great things happening in the future as far as the composition of Linux and gaming is concerned. Off the gaming topic; I have a friend who had (maybe still has—I'm not quite sure) plans for building a house (his major is in house constructing or something, I really have no idea) which will be completely controlled from a single home network connected to a bunch of Raspberry Pis running a GUI-less distro of Linux. Exciting stuff, man. Evolution in modern technology == great times ahead . EDIT: Just felt like adding this in since it is Linux-related. Google employees all use Linux, and for those users who are used to the Mac operating system(s), Google made a distro, Goobuntu, which is really justan "updated" version of Ubuntu, resembling Mac OS X a lot more than, say, GNOME for example. Just some comfort stuff I suppose, yeh? Side-note: The Mac OS is based not-so-loosely nor-so-tightly on UNIX. Mac users use basically a very altered Linux operating system (functionalities differ in different places, obviously).
