LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM BENEFITS AND FEATURES

I am struggling to find a place to begin telling you about all the benefits and features you'll enjoy with Linux.

  1. The operating system loads quickly and shuts down quickly

  2. The operating system is very low cost

  3. Upgrades are FREE!

  4. Browsers like Firefox, Opera, and Chrome work well in Linux

  5. Linux offers an amazing number of free programs

  6. Linux can run Window Office

  7. Linux runs Open Office

  8. Linux looks enough like Windows you won't feel like you're in a strange place.

  9. New open source software is available.

  10. Older open source software is upgraded FREE!

  11. You are not pestered about “Genuine Linux”

  12. When you want to add software it is easy to find what you need

  13. You don't have to clean the registry often – I've never felt the need in Linux

  14. Linux can run Internet Explorer

  15. You have access to support without paying for it

  16. There are several places to find support

  17. You may have access to a support group of living people in your community

  18. You can learn Linux at your own pace

  19. Linux will run your “legacy” equipment saving you replacement costs

  20. Linux has educational software for FREE!

  25. Linux will co-exist peacefully with Windows on your machine

The above list is not a ranked list. It is just the order the benefits and features came to me. The list is not an all inclusive list. You will find Linux has more benefits and features not shown above. My intent is to show you some ideas why you will benefit from having Linux on your computer.

If a few of the reasons listed above are of value to you I am happy to have given you this opportunity to see why many people are choosing Linux as a viable operating system. Should you decide Linux is not for you the choice to delete it is always yours to make.
