Linux Ubuntu - Ready For Prime Time

,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu Linux rocks. You can safely tell your friends to install the latest 
| distro, nicknamed “Hardy Heron”, version 8.04.  And they will thank you. No 
| more paying for Windows or Apple’s OS/X. Have older hardware? Switch to 
| Ubuntu and you’ll think you have a new computer. New hardware? Work at warp 
| speed.

Happiness is a Hot Distro

,----[ Quote ]
| Plain Vanilla Ubuntu is the prefect Distro for many (perhaps most) people 
| because it has a good install system that generally works, and once it is up 
| and running, it is very user friendly and works well. The producers of this 
| Distro are conservative about the application software they include: They 
| often include only somewhat older versions that are tried and true, and wait 
| to include the newer versions.

Feeling the heat at Microsoft

,----[ Quote ]
| A couple of years ago you reiterated that IBM was Microsoft's biggest 
| competitor and you said not just on the business side, but overall. If I ask 
| you who is Microsoft's biggest competitor now, who would it be?  
| 
| Ballmer: Open...Linux. I don't want to say open source. Linux, certainly have 
| to go with that.
