content: Linux will allow you conplete control of you system. You can create whatever type of system you like and once you understand how to customize you can do more than you'd expect. Linux is the future and just learning how to operate and customize your system you'll be able to have a greater knowledge of not only system modification, but programming, design, and modulation. I highly suggest a bare-bones type linux distro so you can learn the base system. But, choosing an easy distro is always great for new users. I highly suggest mint or debian. Yet, with those you have to pick which style of linux you agree with. I'll say this lastly.. it can be a lot of work to create the perfect system. You'll mess up and get angry. But, once you understand the madness to the method, you'll have something amazing. Oh, and fyi.. always create backups to your mod files.
