Class 1 GNU/LINUX Freedom

GNU/LINUX Freedom:

what makes the GNU/LINUX differ from Windows.
the answer is simple, its the "FREEDOM".
GNU-LINUX provides us several freedom:

freedom 0: The freedom to run the program for any purpose
freedom 1: The freedom to study how the program works & adapt it to our needs.
freedom 2: The freedom to redistribute copies ,so we can help our neighbors n friends!
freedom 3: The freedom to improve the program,& can deploy commercially.
lets grab our first freedom.
lets have a free copy of gnu-linux on our computer, run it ,& enjoy!
there are different versions of gnu-linux available for free:
some of them are:-
(click the links to download)

• fedora
• ubuntu
  
• open suse
  
• centos
  
• puppy linux
  
• mandriva linux
  
• debain
  
• slackware
  

and many more. you can also order for a free disc by mail from www.ubuntu.com.

The downloads will be in the form of ISO file , burn it to a disc, put the disc in and reboot the computer. you can work with gnu/linux either without installing into hard disc ( booting it from the cd on restart) or installing it to the hardisk.
