Linux or Microsoft?

Which do you personally prefer ? and why ?

Linux is in violation of nearly 300 patents owned by Microsoft but the distributors and users of Linux haven’t paid a single cent in royalties to Microsoft. In fact, a lot of distributors of Linux offer their OS for free so the users are just as bad as software pirates who are causing Microsoft to lose money and have to charge more for people who legally buy Microsoft Windows instead of people who use Linux or a bootlegged copy of Windows. Why is it legal for Linux to do this?
Here’s a source to an older article. I can’t remember the link from PC World that indicates that Linux is in violation of at least 253 patents owned by Microsoft.

Linux on a microsoft XP/ Dell?

is it possible to instill linux mint 7 on the same HD with Windows XP?

I’m sick of microsoft, but don’t know Linux very well. Here’s my plan: I want to put Linux and windows on both computers. I want to network the two with Linux (I’ll only be using windows for offline work). Will windows interfere with me using Linux as my preferred OS? Any other problems I might face? Is Ubuntu easy to network with?

when configuring it askme for te system should I choose MS2 ,OS/2 or other and how do I install it to the virtual pc only!?

Its so easy to get pirated Windows that you don’t bother buying it. But one should think about whether we should do it or not. I mean it feels good when you are doing the things in a way that you think is right. If I think about it, it seems that the people who did so much hard work in making the Microsoft Windows are getting less paid because of us. What do you think: ‘What is so wrong about using the pirated stuff?’ Moreover, when there is a free alternative available(Linux) why don’t we use it and feel good about not using the pirated one.

I would like the comparison to be on other hardware platforms too. Other then x86 (Intel) hardware.

I am teaching at a school with a Microsoft Windows based network. I am considering ordering 15 Cherrypal Africa netbooks with linux operating system and 160GB hard drive for my students to use in the classroom. I need to know if I order these computers, can they access the network drives to save files on the school network and can they connect to networked printers for the students to print their assignments? Any help in this matter would be greately appreciated. Thanks

1. Which is the best version of Linux & why? (links appreciated)?

2. I only have one PC so I would want to try it installed to a separate partition, alongside windows XP using multiple boot options – I assume this would work?

3. The main reason I want to dump microsoft (& kick bill gates in the nads) is that every time I get a faster processor or more memory, billy gates’s bloatware slows it right back down again (most things seemed to happen faster when I was using a 386SX). IN GENERAL [app dependent], would linux be an improvement in this area?

4. When I remove windows completely, will I still be able to communicate with MSN messenger buddies?

5. How would you describe the learning curve for someone who’s used to windows?

6. In your opinion, Is Linux likely to increase it’s share of the domestic market, and therefore pursuade more software developers to port their products to Linux?
ADDENDUM: I’d also like to know how system stability compares to windows, ditto for overall security – I think my current AV (AVG) is available for Linux but I haven’t checked to be sure.

I know nothing about C!
In the same time I want to catch up with the latest stuff and go with C# but I also want to learn about C in Linux, sockets and a liitle bit of lower level like C(do not give me assembly)
I do not know wich one to start off with first and every single time I decide on something, I try and find tutorials, but I suddenly feel that want to go back to the other one! It is a weird feeling and I also think I got some mental problem ! Please help me with this and do not tell me to look on the other discovered questions!
Could I go with both at the same time since they have a similar syntax?? (not really similar but close)
I forgot to mention that I am not interested in money right now since i am only 14!
That is because when i will be in the stage of making money of it there will be even better languages than c#

Can you use Microsoft Office on Linux?

Linux Script Command in Microsoft?

Hey guys,

I’m finishing a program, and the professor wants us to create a script file which basically records everything the command prompt prints to the screen, and puts it all into a text file. In linux, you can start this with the command:

script scriptfilename

Is there any MS DOS equivelant? thanks!
