From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The damn thing Just Works™. That's why the developers aren't being pestered. It's a pretty great piece of software.
Every couple of years I install other desktops to check out what the cool guys use nowadays, then go right back to XFCE.
It's like having a hot cup of tea on a cold day while sitting in a comfy chair by the fire with your slippers on.
Similarly, I like to toy around with tiling window managers, but then someone less technical needs to use the computer, so back to XFCE we go.
