Here's a great link to learn more about Linux:
http://www.zdnet.com/zdtv/screensavers/linux/

It's off the ZDTV website.  They're really pushing Linux as an alternative.
 Somewhere there may be a link for Linux for free on the site.  My husband
watches the channel all the time and I partitally listen so, that may be
outdated information.
