GoodBye Windows, Hello! Linux

| This is not about how to install and configure Ubuntu, trust me! its simpler
| than you think, so I ll leave that to the readers. What this is about is Why
| you should move to Linux .
|
| The strongest reason to move is Freedom , and by freedom I don’t mean
| price . Once you have Ubuntu installed , you have access to a list of
| thousands of applications which you have the freedom to download
| install and modify to suit your needs . It doesn’t matter if you
| are an expert computer user or a newbie , Ubuntu’s software library
| provides enough to suit everyone’s needs . There are no trial
| versions or registration keys , no exe’s to patch, no more
| crackspider or astalavista

No, I Don't Recommend Microsoft Vista
,----[ Quote ]
| So, in short. If a PC manufacturer were to send me a brand new
| top-of-the line computer for free and it came with Vista I would
| either re-format the hard drive and install XP, or refuse the
| system altogether. And that?s not an exaggeration. Just try me...
|
| But worse than that, considering that eventually XP will simply be
| outdated I'll have no choice but to migrate to a new operating system
| within the next few years. And that system will be Linux.

Vista Upgrade: Stuck in the Middle of Nowhere
,----[ Quote ]
| This is just another reason (again, that is another post for another
| time) why I am hoping to never upgrade my Windows XP laptop to Vista.
| I am hedging my bets on Linux and Wine improving to where I can
| abandon Windows before XP is no longer supported.
