The differences between Linux and other Unix (based) operating systems is barely noticable to the average user. I myself use freebsd which is a unix platform and gentoo which is is a linux distro.
The commands might be located in slightly different places or may have different sets of arguments but the functionallity is thesame. With the GNU tools available for most platforms nowdays even these differences vanish. Most of the differences are located in the kernel design and the systems administration tools but overall they perform the same and both are very stable smile.gif

Both are into my favorite list I like Freebsd and Gentoo the most of all

Beside those I also used, debian, slackware, mandrake, suse, arch, knoppix and openbsd befor I found the one i liked best smile.gif

Linux Is Not UniX

thats where the name comes from. Unix is older, much older than Linux so you can't really say Linux is more stable. FreeBSD is probably one of the most stable systems out there and a favorite of corporate servers.

But I could never get used to the small differences between the two and always ended up using Linux.

edit: ah you mention gentoo pbrugge, now that is an impressive distro!

Actually, according to Rebel Code, Linux was a mishap made
from Linus Torvald's name. Alperuzi, I think you're talking about GNU
-originally stood for GNU's Not Unix.

Unix is probably more stable but Linux has a lot more device drivers
and the like. The command line is almost identical. But personally
I like Linux better, Gentoo all the way. cool.gif

Also u have many linux distributions, every of that distributions do their job very good...Like live distributions KNOPPIX.
Slackware, RedHat (FC2), then Mandrake (graphic is very good), then Debian (wich comes with most packages...then Suse (wich is commercial), then if u like wireless wardriving, Warlinux...and so on, so on...

yes, that's true, because unix is like windows, commercial os, but what da hek u talking about that linux is no so much stable like unix??
MacOS X uses linux kernel? how come that they decided to use linux kernel instead of using some commercial kernels? because linux supported G4 and other processors, so it's all about support for devices, processors, linux is much unix like, it has all funcionality like unix, the only difference is that u don't have some commercial aplications for linux, like MS office for linux. Once i installed MS Explorer, on Solaris (SUN OS 5.6), and it's worked better than Netscape Navigator.
It was 5 years ago, Netscape didn't supported CSS, and Explorer did, and Explorer really worked better and faster than Netscape navigator on unix. So, it's all about writing good software, i use evry kind of OS, windows is most common, but i also like very much linux, for networking, and unix. MAC OS for graphic, because it's made for DTP smile.gif, and really great for that

    What is so good about Linux? I've heard many people say that Windows is terrible, and that

    compatible with many things. It's only compatible with extremely popular games, right? I'd
    like to know what is so good about Linux because I'm considering switching, if there's
    really a good reason too....
