The Linux and Windows operating systems shouldn't really be pitted against each other, because both are good in their own right. I've used Ubuntu in my IT1 class, and it's really user friendly, although I got used to using Windows for my operating system. In fact, my laptop's OS is Windows 7, and I'm enjoying the virus-free system. I also grew up using Windows operating systems, from Windows 95 to Windows 7, but if given a chance, I would also add Linux to my operating systems. (too bad my laptop isn't built to handle two operating systems at once. or I'm just too lazy to find out. haha.)
One of the upsides of using Linux operating systems is because it's practically free. (duh. FREEWARE.) :o another thing is that it's got lots of cool games, and it really is user friendly. Plus the icons on the desktop looks so neat and organized even if the user isn't really neat AND organized. Although Linux OSs looks hard to decipher at first, once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to enjoy its perks.
Using Windows has definitely a lot of upsides too. If you are using Windows, then you surely must've enjoyed its numerous perks, like the Movie Maker and Media Player where you can burn CDs. I don't know if Linux has a movie maker and media player that can burn CDs too, but if I find out information on it, I'll be updating this blog.
Personally, I prefer using Windows, because it's what I'm used to. But I would love to give Linux a try too. Perhaps a new laptop. Mom? Where are you? New lappy, por favor, mi mama. :))

Trivia questions: what is the name of the Linux mascot, and why was it chosen to be included in the logo for Linux?
Answer: the cute penguin's name is Tux. Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux OS, had a fixation for "flightless, fat waterfowl" (according to Wikipedia) penguins in particular.
(Weird. But there are a whole lot of other reasons why Tux is the mascot. Haha.)
