From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What's wrong with tabs?
Not good for real multitasking. A combination of Windows and tabs is way better. Also there's no reason to have a single application that you've to open to then create whatever document you need. Just split the damn thing into multiple apps like every other productive office suite.
I'm glad to inform you that...
That options exists, has been there for a while but its not enough. Read the thing you replied to, not having real multiple apps means things such as Window taskbar combination doesn't work as it should.
