More Pleasant Surprises with Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| As I continue to test and work with Ubuntu, I have come across a few more
| very pleasant surprises:
|
| - I plugged in my Logitech V20 Notebook Speakers (USB). They worked.
|
| - I plugged in my Logitech QuickCam for Notebooks Deluxe. It worked. No muss,
| no fuss, so searching for drivers, it just worked.
|
| - I plugged in my Canon BJC-55 printer. It worked. I printed a test page on
| it, and it came out perfect. This really is getting quite impressive.
|
| - I plugged in my Philips SPC1300NC webcam, and although it is recognized and
| identified correctly, it doesn't seem to work. This is a bit surprising,
| since it is a UVC-compatible device, I'll have to look into it a bit more.

This guy is new to Ubuntu Linux overall he seems impressed. Like many others,
he escaped Visata.

| I then click print in Evince and out comes the document. Done. You know,
| people still insist on telling me that they don’t want to run Linux because
| its harder, or that Windows XP just works for what they want to do. Are you
| kidding me? Just this evening it took me twice as much work to *try* and
| print something, which never worked. Ubuntu “just worked”… go figure.
