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.

The ally has its own set of utilities for controlling power that works pretty well. It's not windows native but then again it's not native for vanilla Linux either.
I looked at installing Linux on my ally z1 when I first got it. It's just not a performance boost and you do lose some device specific items as well. It makes some sense with niche specific devices like that.
All that said, if it works for you then great!
