Hello all, this is your opportunity to tell the world what do you like of Zorin OS and win a great prize !!
What ?
You don’t even know what’s Zorin os ??
Zorin OS is an Ubuntu-based Linux distribution designed especially for newcomers to Linux. It has a Windows-like graphical user interface and many programs similar to those found in Windows. Zorin OS also comes with an application that lets users run many Windows programs. The distribution’s ultimate goal is to provide a Linux alternative to Windows and let Windows users enjoy all the features of Linux without complications.
So, these are the rule, and a special thanks from me to DarkDuck and Zorin to allow me to join the contest, now I’m waiting to read some nice story.
A new release of Zorin OS 9 has been released only few days ago, that is why it is time for yet another contest, isn’t it?
Let’s Do It!
Just to refresh your memories, here are the rules.
This contest is organised together by Zorin OS team, Linux notes from DarkDuck and Buy Linux CDs.

Please write a short story about Zorin OS, or maybe just Linux in general.
Why do you use Linux? How did you come to the Linux world? What do you like here? What are you doing to promote Linux? Any of these, or maybe your own themes are good.
It would be better, if your post is about Zorin OS, but this is just “nice to have”.
