Dear Alok, LINUX is a high-end operating system but it doesn't cost very much. My husband installed LINUX on his PC at work. The cost: $100.00. You can install LINUX for less but he wanted 30 days of free technical support which he never used. He chose STAR OFFICE version of LINUX. He got a CD and an instruction manual. There are other versions of LINUX on the market. You can even download it for free from the net. Butt, I would not recommend that you do that unless you are a real techie like James. The LINUX system at work comes with many office suites. Spouse did not like the mailer. however. So he downloaded a mailer named, "Call Me Ishmael" for free from the net. (Try buying MSFT office suite for $100.00) When he was shopping for his LINUX system, he discovered many other shoppers hovering around the LINUX area. He runs LINUX 100%. And he is very happy that he no longer has to deal with MSFT Windows at work because the MSFT Windows crashes were on-going and either he or a technical support person had to spend a great deal of time to sort out the Windows problems. Cheers, Mephisto
