I’m not agreeing with everything he has to say, but the article is interesting and certainly describes some of the reasons I choose Linux. If you haven’t tried it yet, check out Ubuntu’s Live CD on any PC. If you can boot from a CD you can play with Linux and not risk any of the existing stuff on your computer.

I started out with a 1952 Philips TV console that I picked up for $40 at an estate sale.
