Here is a listing of the cool features of Linux that sets it apart for me:
File name completion.
The ability to copy floppies, even if the system doesn't understand the format on the floppy.
The loop device in Linux which allows you to view a disk image without placing that image on a floppy/cdrom/etc first.
More than one person can log on to X-Windows simultaneously, each with their own separate copy of windows - each copy can be password protected - you can then switch between these two or more copies as necessary.
You can run applications on a remote server and display the graphical application locally on your desktop.
