Long live the live cd
I use Linux. I am not a felon. I just don't want to waste my money on crap. All my friends use Linux. They are not felons. They just don't waste their money on crap. Think using Linux is hard and time wasting? Then you don't know how to use it. There is Ubuntu for people like you. Windows means licenses and money and slowing things down. Even if Linux does take a little more time for the fun of programming, better wasted time than money.
