         I'm a Linux advocate. I use Linux Mint and Mandriva.   
   However Linux is lacking in a lot of hardware support when it   
   comes to TV capture devices and tuners. Linux is great for doing   
   mundane tasks that need stability like running servers. Linux   
   isn't good for playing games on a computer, yet. On the bright   
   side Android is based on Linux and does those things well even   
   if on mobile devices. Maybe some day Linux will have some killer   
   games and killer apps that will make it more popular. Right now   
   it's at about 1% of the home user market. I wish it was more.
