[News] [Linux] More Stories About Migration to Ubuntu; Review of Ubuntu Studio

Operating Systems - Linux or Windows? Long Live UBUNTU!

| I do all my writing, for example, on my Linux machine. Since OpenOffice 
| also has a free PDF conversion utility built right into its word 
| processor, I'm writing my new book ("Copyright-Free Content for Your
| Newsletters") also on my Linux machine. (YES - you don't need to buy 
| Adobe Acrobat Pro to generate PDFs!)

Review of Dell XPS 410n with Ubuntu Feisty preinstalled

,----[ Quote ]
| I received my XPS with Ubuntu today. The first thing I will say is 
| that when the Fedex guy delivered it he asked if Dell was having some 
| kind of liquidation sale because he has delivered more Dells today 
| than ever before. He told me that he had already delivered five and 
| there were eleven more on the truck. (Just throwing that out there.)

| I think Dell has done a good thing with this system. They obviously
| made an effort with resolution detection (which was going to be sore 
| no matter what) and did an excellent job of keeping those crapware
| leeches off the system.

A Look at Ubuntu Studio

,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu has been the most popular Linux distribution for quite some 
| time now. This popularity has spawned quite a few variants. Apart
| from the inevitable third-party knock-offs, there are a few
| "official" Ubuntu-based distributions: Kubuntu, which has a KDE 
| GUI instead of the standard GNOME, Edubuntu, which is optimized
| for use in classrooms and Xubuntu, which uses the lighter-weight
| XFCE desktop to take advantage of older computers. Now, a new 
| variant has appeared called Ubuntu Studio.

Ubuntu Linux on my Dell XPS M1210

,----[ Quote ]
| What I love most about Ubuntu on Dell is the lack of crappy
| 3rd party software that is typically shipped with their
| computers. When I bought Dell's in the past I'd basically
| strip the entire hard drive and do a fresh Windows install
| so I wouldn't have all those extra programs on my computer
| which I'd never use. To tell you the truth Ubuntu already
| comes with too much stuff for my tastes but it's really
| easy to uninstall unwanted applications in this OS.
|
| Just remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it's likely available via
| open-source.
