Why use Linux? Simply because it has FREEDOM written all over it! Freedom in everything you do every day and freedom for all you electronic devices. But let’s not be selfish here and think about all the big companies that use Linux everyday to make your life easier and most likely cheaper, starting with major airlines and finishing with your usual bus operating companies. Hell, the whole Internet is powered by Linux! Happy Birthday, Linux!
