Answer
You don't. You buy them from M$ or from a reseller.

Or you can download Linux for free, burn the ISO to a disk and start using free software legally. But I don't think you are bothered by such questions as doing things legally.

Answer
There's a lot of different Linux distros, you should try a few of them and decide which one you like. Since you mentioned in your previous question that you only have 128MB of RAM, I suggest you go with either Damn Small Linux or Puppy Linux:

What's the Linux distro with most software available to download for free (if there's) with best support?

Badrajith

Tell me if there's any Linux distro with most no. of software available to download for free with excellent support. I just need a Linux based system that I can use as a replacement for Windows. More software available for free as an all-purpose system (like Windows), especially for educational, office use & multimedia-related tasks. Not crashing often is also a must.

Answer
Without doubt Debian. The repository is vast.

I thoroughly recommend Linux Mint Debian Edition Its easy to install and easy to use plus it comes with much of the software you are likely to need preinstalled
