Fedora vs. Ubuntu : choose a linux distribution best suits you

| 8. Visual Effects. Ubuntu 7.10 offers normal compiz visual effects right 
| after a fresh install. And you can choose to enable more. Fedora 8 came with 
| the minimal. (And of course, in both versions, the earlier the edition, the 
| less the effects.) But if you are really into this, I am sure they both don't 
| offer enough and you can go to the communities to let people help you 
| discover the maximal.

| 18) If you compile programs from ports, you will not stumble into compilation 
| errors. BSD packagers prepare their packages carefully, so that users will 
| always compile them successfully. This does not always happen with Linux.

Kubuntu v.s. PC-BSD

,----[ Quote ]
| I played a bit with Kubuntu this morning in preparation for the 
| article "PC-BSD for Ubuntu Users". It made sense to me to compare the two 
| operating systems if they were both running the same window manager (KDE) so 
| I wouldn't be distracted by Gnome v.s. KDE issues. That was my first 
| mistake....

Ubuntu 7.10: adding some 'bling' to Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu 7.10 (codenamed 'Gutsy Gibbon') could arguably be called the 'bling' 
| release of the world's most popular Linux distribution. Swish 3D desktop 
| effects, coupled with a new display configuration tool, make eye-candy the 
| focus.

The Linux Battle: Ubuntu vs. Fedora

,----[ Quote ]
| Up to this point, Ubuntu appears to be taking the lead in the open 
| source operating system world with a strong backing from Dell 
| Computers. Both operating systems are fully functional and have 
| surprisingly strong features.

Fedora v. Ubuntu: A Performance Look

,----[ Quote ]
| In this article we have enclosed benchmarks from Fedora Core 6,
| Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft, Fedora 7 Test 2, and Ubuntu Feisty Fawn Herd
| 5. In gaming and desktop benchmarks, which of these Linux
| distributions is faster? We hope to answer that question today.

It can't be easy being Fedora, overshadowed by Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| You can clearly see Fedora as king through 2004 until Ubuntu (the plucky chap 
| in red) started his rise to fame. Towards Q1 of 2005 Ubuntu surpassed Fedora 
| as the most searched Linux distro and it's stayed there.

Ubuntu vs. Red Hat on Compete.com, Hitwise, and Google Trends

,----[ Quote ]
| Clearly, Ubuntu is catching up with Red Hat, at least in terms of the number 
| of visitors to its website, and Debian (on which Ubuntu is based) continues 
| to be the community distribution of choice, blowing away Red Hat's Fedora and 
| Novell's OpenSuSe.

| Well, that’s what Atomic’s here to sort out for you. We’ve looked at 
| distributions at all levels, from the newcomers that need a bit of 
| hand-holding, to those looking to get their feet wet with command-line tools 
| and new technology, and the Linux kung-foo masters that are ready for 
| something truly hardcore.
