Default Re: What makes Linux better than Win/Mac?
I use Linux because it suits my needs. As I have said in another thread, Windows feels insecure all the time, and you can't always fix it when things break, except to reinstall. Macs work fine but try to go beyond what the app publisher has in mind for you to do, and you'll find it's not catered for. Besides I think they are overpriced. But some people like to just use a computer as an appliance. I have no issues with that. So it may suit your girlfriend.

Just as you should accept that your GF may not want to get involved with techo stuff, she should accept that your wanting to experiment and learn is part of your personality. To be honest I am beyond the wow I can compile an application stage, but in the learning stages, it can be interesting. Besides, tell her you will get up to greater evil if you didn't have Linux to play with. That's all the answer you need, you use it because you like it.

Linux is not for everyone, but it is very flexible.
