My top 5 reasons to use Linux
 

Here! To convince people who wonder here on purpose trying to find somebody to convince them.

5.) You'll learn something

4.) You can show off to your friends, because you turn "special" after you use Linux

3.) You have a new religon without giving up your old (Vi is better! No! Emacs!)

2.) You'll get to argue with idiots that like Windows and know you are right

1.) Instead of exit, you get to kill.

no vi emacs rulaz :)

Vi is more of a light rugged rifle.

Emacs is a planet destroying cannon used in a small urban firefight.

thats what makes it awesome

Heh ... a rifle that needs you to pull two triggers
before you can actually shoot ;) Hell of a lot of
a use :D

Well, vi's ONLY excuse for being around is that
it fit's on a floppy, and emacs doesn't ;)

VI is a light rugged rifle which fits in your back pocket, which can wipe out whole civilizations (or) be used in hand to hand combat, depending on necessity.

Emacs can shoot down planes, but for some reason it was installed underground, where it fails in taking out the rodents. All it's good for is playing tetris and I have Linux for that - a far superior OS to Emacs.
; )

Exactly - the idea of a text editor not fitting on a floppy is insane. Emacs isn't a text editor - it's an OS with an identity crisis.

Not that I'm in a vi/emacs holy war. I mostly use joe. :D

Vi and emacs equally cool.
The only problem I find with them is that I sometimes have to use them for the lack of an easy-to-use text editor.

My reason for using this wonderful OS....Chicks dig Linux.;D

Do they? Believe me, they don't. They get all sensitive because Bill Gates wears make up.

vi is god

Guys, I think you got it all wrong! VI iMproved(VIM) is the best!

Check it out.

I have heared enough about this vi being good but personally I always use emacs and I can do thing much faster than my friends who use vi!

LOL, I haven't progressed past pico. I can use edlin though. *groan*
I'm going to have to relearn vi sometime. Know any good cheatsheets?

Personally, I think emacs is a little too bloated.
