Is anyone listening?

Software, especially operating systems should be free of viruses and spy ware. That is the freedom that Linux of any brand gives you. I have been using it for years and it works just as it is supposed to. There are still some rare hardware that is not recognized especially win-modems, but for the most part Linux works better than most for my money.

I know Linux is free (as in cost), but that doesn't make it bad. In most of the computers that I have tried it on, it detects and installs hardware better than Windows does. My main reason for using it and encouraging others to do so is that viruses, spy ware, key loggers, etc. don't work on Linux because they are written for Windows computers.

I am repeating things that have been said many, many times before, but people need to hear it. Open source operating systems and office software IMHO are the best way to go. This message has to get to those who need it. Please, help me spread the word beyond the developer and IT community.
