I still don't agree that it's a good alternative. The operating system is only as good as the apps that run on them and no Linux is going to compete against PC or Mac. Until you can load your iTunes on it, run your Hallmark card maker software, and run the latest Dora game, then Linux is a good mainstream operating system
