Does anyone hate linux?

i like linux because it's a cheap version of unix which people can purchase or even free to learn from.

without those linux os, i dont think we can get much far with all the FREE website, FREE shell, FREE services since owning and maintaining an unix server (solaris, sunos) are quite expensive.

I don't hate linux, hell I'm trying to learn linux, but right now this isn't my box and I can't do a dual-boot config on it. If I could, I'd be all over it.

Hate Linux? Hell NO! It's free, it's different from Windows, has a big community, many programs.. who couldn't love linux. I like it, my first linux was 6 years ago, I think it was a Redhat, then I tried others distributions, now I'm running Ubuntu, it works fine for me.. LOVE 2 TUX Smile

I have no reason to hate linux. Its becoming much more user friendly on some distro's day by day. I use it all the time and haven't been stopped from doing anything that windows does yet

I'm learning to use linux but I don't see a reason to hate linux. Unlike windows, linux is free, open source and has a big community.

Linux is awesome. The moment I get my new hard disc I'm going to install Linux and then dual-boot it with Windows.

The only comparison and explanation why people still have windows is the reason why Italians are still Catholic Laughing : Because thats what they know, thats what their neighbor uses and thats what their parents use.

Its all about three things: ease of use (ubuntu), compatibility (games, m$ office eqiuvalent (openoffice?), photoshop (the gimp?)), and concentration on ONE VERSION.

Although mulitple versions are what make linux unique, in order for it to spread it must be dumbed down (like suse and licoris) and focus should be spent on developing one SUPERB version not many great versions. I personally love linux, its just compatibility that fails for me.
All in favor, sign the waiver.
