Plenty of application programs that can be downloaded from the Internet (freeware and shareware) than Linux. > - what are the things in Windows that you would want to see in linux? I want Linux to support different kinds of video cards. The resolution of the video card in Linux is not very much clear. Linux must improve the performance of the video resolution of a PC. Windows beats again Linux in this area I think!:) > - why do you think Windows users aren't switching over to linux by now? 1. Most people around the world I think are used with MS Word and Excel processing. KDE and GNOME word processing programs are new to most users of computers. 2. Linux has limited supported drivers when your Generic IBM PC has built-in soundcard, video. It can't detect them when you're in the process of installation. 3. Most people are intimidated with Linux because they think it is hard to install and use.
