Linux is sort of like Unix. A lot of ppl view Linux as an alternative to Windows and having to pay for an OS. Linux also seems to be fully configurable , where apparently you can build your own Kernl and have full control. You should check on the various web sites for your hardware ( mainboard. sound, video, nic ... etc ) for Linux drivers. I am just a casual observer of Linux , this is just what I have observed.
