Hey Nathan, I am relatively new to linux and I was wondering something. What is the most significant thing you can do with ubuntu that cannot be done with windows? Is the system just all about being free and still being about to do prettymuch whatever windows can do (except gaming, flight sim) and the most poweful games or is there something else unique about linux that I am missing?

I currently have a large box of 12.04 CDs sitting in my garage that I would love to share with all of you. Would some of you like to meet up sometime this month? The suburbs and city both work for me (suburbs are a bit more convenient).
