Things you can do with Linux and not with windows

Some people install windows on their netbook (or buy one with windows). I think this is not very smart because the only things you could ever really need windows for (games and photoshop) are not likely to run very well on these things.

Following a list of some of the things you can do with Linux and not on windows (or very difficult)

Windows has VSS, this blog is questioning why there isn't something similar in Linux
from the blog:
"But where’s Linux?
Linux distributions don’t have any equivalent feature. Yes, modern Linux distributions include the dm-snapshot module, but that just does the snapshot, there is no framework for application developers, storage vendors, or backup vendors to integrate with. The result has been a few one-off solutions focused on a particular application stack, but for the most part applications just suffer from inconsistent snapshots on Linux. "

"The decision to move to Red Hat Linux and VMWare technology on HP hardware was taken in May last year when the company chose to implement a new ecommerce suite from ATG. Speaking to ZDNet.com.au sister site silicon.com, figleaves.com chief of technology Peter Pedersen said the retailer had outgrown the old system."

Can you imagine this is a almost 6 year old article. While the usability of Linux has improved a lot in the meantime, microsoft created Vista and went completely the other way, becoming less and less usable.
This counts up to what?
use your imagination...
