People never joined a training program or purchased books for their darker days with Windhus...so why Linux. Also, gone are the days of Slackware when it used to take 6 hours to just listen to your first song. Today, it's a matter of minutes to get a linux system up and to start working on that presentation you have to give the next day. Best way will be downlading ubuntu iso , installing it and install > applications which you use daily, There are nearly all software > alternative available on linux. Although, this list tries hard to keep itself from any bias, however I don't think mentioning a distro is that bad. If somebody from Ireland asks you about a good Mughlai restaurant he would like to go and try, you don't start explaining him how an ideal mughlai restaurant should be and tell him to go and find one similar to your description. Rather, after your short lecture on mughlai you recommend him a restaurant he can go and try. So, personally i don't think recommending distro's is bad. Ofcourse, those recommendations have to be backed by convincing reasons which was visibly missing here. But i believe given a chance Mr. Mishra will present his reasons. > If you can`t find some alternative, Post your queries on mailing list. Always, welcome...but do google before posting.
