I've just discovered why Linux is free.
Can you guess?
No?
It's written by a bunch of punks who like throwing bricks through windows.
Two months of work destroyed when I tried to install a variety on unpartitioned space and it destroyed the partitions it wasn't supposed to touch.
Ooops. Well, it's not like we're doing it for money, eh?
Ooops. These jokers had better not try doing it for money either.

Update.
I'm used to trouble-free perfection on downloads from microsoft.
But I made the installation of Linux work after a second download and a Hash code check;the failed installation ran to completion at this attempt, and lo and behold, my dual-boot Windows partition was fully restored and works.
And I just love the way the Linux installs directly from the web.
Those punks!They went ahead and made my day.
This entry comes to you courtesy of my new Linux Server.
Gradely!
Have you encountered the statement, "This software comes with absolutely no warranty" yet? Every time I have some kind of big systemwide problem and can only boot into the command line, that pops up. Very reassuring. That said, it doesn't happen that often, and I have always been able to find and fix the problem.
Welcome to Linux world!
Cheers Sunni!
I quite like the disclaimer, as they are shrugging off the people who like to complain all the time and say who's fault everything is.
I find that the GUI installer fails 80% of the time; I'm going to triple the RAM before I make any judgement(e-bay, £15 or $30), but the command line installation system relies on one, easily changeable, search-path file and works brilliantly every time, with intuitive diagnostics and plenty of information.
I'm beginning to like the software development packages too.
