Linux is a multi-tasking operating system written in the programming languages C and assembler. It is very compact, fast and stable. The reason MS Windows is more popular is because of the 3rd party software available for it.
I use Linux most of the time. It's great if you don't mind fiddiling around with stuff on your computer. It's not nearly as user friendly as Windoze, but it does have much more flexiblity. If you know what you're doing, you can make it get up and dance for ya. Some of the internet applications can be a bit flaky, I still have trouble with flash and shockwave sometimes.
Still, I'd give it a shot. The internets are loaded with forums and help. That's how I learned. Have fun!
Olsojente: Or just leave the dead laptop where it is...
that would be a waste of resources. as long as the laptop is still in a good working order, it would be a good idea to get it working one way or another.
p_seg: lately been using Ubuntu and Mandriva, the first on a desktop and the other on a netbook.
I've tried gOS, but its seems more geared to Google and its apps.
That's what like about the new gOS. I'm a total google fanboy, so It's nice to have all that stuff on the desktop. It's all about cloud computing now, I think..

I do like Google, but don't want to switch from one empire to another!

Agreed. I'm always a little wary of their quest to know everything about me, even what color underwear I'm wearing..it can be a little creepy sometimes...
