I love Ubuntu

Submitted by Michael on Thu, 2007-03-01 15:39.

I don't feel like turning back either. (to M$)I love it because:

  1. Wine allows me to play windows apps anyway
  2. Wireless Keyboard battery indicator
  3. Easy to install alot of different packages
  4. It's the only operating system I can *legally* install. (I dont bother messing with buying windows xp)
  5. Live CD/Install combo- I liked being able to use the operating system before it even started installing!
  6. Has software I been using anyway: I always have been using FOSS software on Windows anyway (Firefox, Gaim, Gimp, Open Office.. etc)
  7. My parents are happy with it
  8. Easy ubuntu made it easy to install support for apple and m$ formats as well as flash and java.
  9. Bash is very amazing at what It can do!

3 - Easy to install software in Fedora, openSUSE, Xandros. Easy install isnt just with ubuntu.4 - The only distro you can legally install without buying ?? You need to redo this. Theres over 300 linux flavours, and nearly all of them are FREE to legally install.6 - All basically have the same software you can use.8 - Easy Ubuntu for flash and java ? Im a newbie, less than a year, but I can install them easily from the command line. Im not the brightest bulb in the pack, but Im faster than doing it via synaptic etc.Maybe you should have changed the title to "Why I love the Ubuntu Linux Distro" and not made out that its the only one that can do what you've listed. Linux is NOT Ubuntu.
