Continuing on with the dissection of the anatomy of Linux you may remember that I rambled on a bit about how the kernel modules are used to access the various hardware devices on the computer. This makes the Linux kernel soNot just hardware either. Other things like file systems, networking protocols and lower level stuff (real technical term there :) ) can be and are handled by kernel modules. MORE

There are simply too many reasons to choose Linux and I have come to the conclusion that it is just not practical to go over them all. For a start I will come across as a Linux fanatic (well I am but that's beside the point) and it will also get old and boring very quick (much like I am in real life) So I will conclude this ramble on why people choose Linux in this final batch of monkey key presses MORE

Other people will, of course, think differently, however, Linux is the operating system I have chosen to use and I have used it for many, many years.

Previously I said that the most popular reason people say that they choose Linux is because it is free as in beer. It is not, however, the only reason people choose Linux. Some people choose Linux because it is not a proprietary operating system. Well, it seems that I have more to say on this subject than I thought I would. This is not a financial decision but more like a MORE
