Hello all, This is my stab at this issue: Linux features ----- Linux Benefits Open Source Software ----- Reliable, freedom New Technology ----- Use the latest gadgets, frequent updates Connect to Windows File systems ------ Compatible with Windows systems Thin Client Software ----- No Hard Drive necessary OS has small code footprint ----- can use inexpensive hardware X Software ------- GUI/windows environment Extensive Documentation ------ Read the code and documentation on net Upgrade kernel seperately from apps ----- customize systems Security exploits patched fast ----- Keep the hackers out Only one kernel development ------ less kernel integration issues (Win95/98/NT/2000 kernel development is a nightmare in comparison) GPL ------- Cost is free, additional improvements benefit all users Any comments??? Additions???

This isn't strictly SuSE related, but it is Linux related.
What are the fundamental differences between Linux and Windows these days? I can think of graphics, which is totally different, and disks/mount points which are handled differently. With Windows becoming network-ed (albeit badly), what genuine differences does that leave for the Linux community to exploit?
