Linux
Hopefully quite a few of you viewing this page will have at least heard of Linux, it is an Open Source unix-clone Operating System that runs a wide range of popular, and not so popular, computer types.
If you are already using Linux the these pages won't be too much use to you, although I will get around to putting up a list of some of my favourite applications to check out, as if you really care! ;)
However there will be some reviews of the various different distros I have tried, what I think of them, and how suitable they are for home use, especially focussing on their friendliness and usability for user new to the operating system.
