I guess I'm just curious if Linux-Unix has anything to do with Web Design, unless it has something to do with some programs that Linux uses for Web Designing that Windows doesn't? I don't know. LOL If you know anything, please let me know. Thanks!
Linux…

Why Learn Linux:

Because it is very common.
Because it is not Windows!
Because you'll see how it is a superior operating system.
Because it is typically used to run servers,
more specifically for Web hosting...
Because it will open all kinds of doors for you.
such as HTML, JavaScript, MySQL, PHP, Apache...
Because you'll get paid more money to be an *nix admin than a windoze admin.
