Linux? What is Linux?

Linux is a computer operating system (OS) like Microsoft Windows or Apple OS X – only it's better. Better because... It is immune to viruses that attack other operating systems. It is much more affordable than other operating systems. It is more stable than other operating systems, meaning that your computer will rarely, if ever, stop working. It is more secure than other operating systems, so you'll be protected form spyware and malware. You can get thousands of free applications developed by the open source community. It is open source, which means all its underlying code is "open" for use by anyone. Anyone can freely use the Linux code to create their own software, or even their own operating system. And because JIJORO uses the Linspire brand of Linux operating system, you get even more – like tons of built-in programs, one-click access to thousands of new software titles, and a familiar environment that makes it really easy to use.
