For me, Linux was the natural way to go when Amiga started losing speed. I use both today of course.

who ever pushed it as a good alternative to Windows is a liar fudging facts for the sake of promoting ideology.

Oh, yeah right and People who ever pushed Mac and Windows as a good alternative to Linux is  a liar fudging facts for the sake of promoting ideology.

It is a excellent alternative to both Windows and Mac. Every OS has it strong, and less strong points, yes even Windows and Mac. For me, Linux is the natural choice after the Amiga, because it 's FUN to tinker with ,adjustable and not mainstream boring. It's an excellent developer platform.

It's just that, you know, it's not a very good one.

What is it that you don't like with Linux?

One more thing that reminds me of Amiga when using Linux is the philosophy of sharing code, just like the Fred Fish-days.
