What is Linux to you?

[Hall, Tony, JCW]

1. It's not M$    Wholeheartedly agree
2 <snip> Agreed, and that means no Warez, cause it's all free
3. I have no knowledge of what's going on... Ever
4. Fast, yeah, yeah.  speed, more speed he hehe hehehe
5. Absolutely!!!! Being able to configure everything with a text file, and
or script it!!!!!
6. Eh, getting there.... We're "testing" a few machines on an independent
network so that our IT dept. doesn't find out          about it. Hehehe 
7. Ok, so I'm not original, and have to play off other peoples ideas... Wait
a minute, ain't that what Billy did?            Oh Noooooooooooooooooo

For me its several things:

1.	It's not M$
2.	Being a part of a community of people that build tools together,
share
them freely, and trade their knowledge openly.
3.	Having complete control of your system.  I don't know half the stuff
that
my linux kernel is doing at any given time,  	but as long as I want to
learn
it, it is there for me.
4.	A reliable, fast, and enterprise-capable OS for free!
5.	Tweaking and fine-tuning. What a way to spend a rainy afternoon!
6.	I wish that open-source could be a model for more business
environments,
its an ideal that I believe strongly in and 	it is showing itself to be
viable despite the pessimists.
