What
is Linux?
From
Anna Taylor.
August 2018.
You might not know this but Linux is broadly used
in our daily lives; our cars, phones, home appliances
and more. Linux is an operating system just like Windows
and Mac OS, which manages operations between your
laptop or computer's hardware and software.
Linux,
however is completely cloud based. If you have
been faced with endless viruses, corrupted software,
hanging and constant reboots you will love what Linux
has to offer its users. A look at how to get the best
and sleekest operating systems available for Linux
users is elaborated below.
Why opt for Linux?
Linux is an open source cloud based operating system
which does not only offers a reliable robust system
but also is completely free for users across the globe.
Only some server downloads will ask users a fee. To
get the system up and running on your device is however
free.
Managing and monitoring servers was a tedious task
for administrators but if you opt for Linux babysitting
is no longer required.
But Linux is not just for super users; Linux is widely
used for desktop use. Viruses, malware issues and
reboots are a thing of the past. If the fact that
it is completely free didn't get your attention the
latter should have.
Advantage of freeware
Because Linux is open source the user has the right
to use Linux for any purpose and change it to suit
your needs. Not only are you free to redistribute
copies of your revamped versions; because its users
constantly upgrade and better Linux, chances are you
are getting the best tailor made Operating System
on the market that can be copied on any number of
computers, copied to disc or USB and completely legal
and free of charge. This means you don't have to win
big while enjoying a bit of Australian
sports betting in order to benefit from the system,
and can keep your hard earned money for other things.
Flavours of Linux
Linux offers a variety of distributions called flavours,
which acts in its own right on your computer or server.
Choosing the correct flavour of Linux comes down
to your expected experience and use of the product,
whether you are using its operating systems for desktop
or server use.
Here are some helpful tips on making sure you get
the most out of Linux.
For desktop use:
•
Ubuntu Unity
•
GNOME 3
•
Cinnamon
•
KDE
•
Enlightenment
•
XFCE
•
Deepin Desktop
Prospective users are encouraged to research each
individual flavour to ensure the best experience.
For server use the following flavours have made
their mark:
•
Red Hat Enterprise Linux
•
Ubuntu Server
•
CentOS
•
SUSE Enterprise Linux
Note that not all of the server distributions are
free of charge.
Still need convincing?
Deciding on your tailor made product depends on the
user's computer skills, whether the user enjoys a
modern or standard desktop interface and whether it
is used for desktop or server purposes.
Whatever your need, Linux is sure to provide a reliable
interface offering a unique hassle free solution.
Linux is the most widely used operating
system. Being community developed and freely distributed
Linux offers a safe reliable and secure cross platform
operating system that will not leave you hanging.
