| I dual-boot Vista-Linux. There are no lack of websites to learn about Linux. It's too vast a subject (it's like asking "tell me all you know about meat?"), do you have any specific questions? | |

| I can chip in here. I use Ubuntu, and like it. My son who is in IT and his friends also in IT disqualify MS and prefer Linux.
It seems to be a new wave of qualification.

| You're right tickle. MS certs are not valued the way they used to be. The open source movement is gaining momentum. Having knowledge in multiple OSes is never a bad thing. There isn't much you can't do in Ubuntu, there are many replacements for Windows programs, and it's all free. | |

| To tell you the truth, my son and friends are just so deep in IT that one of them does a computer forensics job with the Bank of Montreal in Toronto. They are all so well certified, qualified and continually up dating their skills that they are very well saught after by Banks and the like and are never quite out of jobs the bunch of them. I am so proud of my son who is doing what he always wanted to do.
I and my husband, who has a computer based home business are never at a loss for a computer expert in the house. I however, just juggle along doing e mails and AMHD with my Ubuntu and probably dont even know the potential I am using and Chris my son is constantly up dating it for me, with programmes I am not very likely to ever use.

| My answer wasn't good enough the first time you had to create a new thread OUCH!
I like Linux, it's different and it's gaining speed toward acceptability and respectability.
Like I said before I like Novel Suse, Opensuse and Ubuntu
