Video is really nice. but as i'm a windows user and i dont know the exact working of the linux. i tried installing once but i was unable to setup all my hardware..so i uninstalled it and not tried it again. i've heard that linux is more stable and secure than windows but i need someone to guide about using the linux operating system.. :(

Buy the book: Linux for Non-geeks by: Rickford Grant. It is a good start if you want to get into linux.

Well the main reason why people shy way from linux is because they still think it a command prompt only. The also think that linux is fot Uber-Geeks. When it is not. I mean yes some times it can be harder then windows to set up, but your efforts are paid back to you ten fold. I mean everything in Linux is free. How much do you think it would of cost you if you made that same video in any windows OS? I bet it is a lot more then free. Also an average computer did that, if you wanted to do something like that in windows you would have to 1000's of dollars for hardware! Linux is very awesome indeed!

I had already watched this videos before. But it is good to see it here again. Thanks for posting it here. I hope this would let the other users who think Linux does not have a good interface or eye candy understand they are wrong.

Yes Linux is a very good OS. I like it but I also use Windows XP. I think they are both good. I am a linux newbie, but as soon as I can get the internet working I bet I will use Windows a lot less. Also What music is that in vid? I like the video overall very cool.
