Jaunty Jackalope: Are Alarm Bells Ringing in Redmond?
,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu's Jaunty Jackalope has bounded onto desktops, and reaction in the
| Linux blogosphere is mostly thumbs up. There are some who wish the Ubuntu
| distros didn't come in such quick succession, however, arguing that there's
| not enough time to stabilize them and get into serious application
| development. Still, if it's all part of a hellbent for leather effort to
| compete with Microsoft, it may just be working.

Ubuntu Linux As Slick As Windows or Mac, Reviewer Says

Ubuntu 9.04 as slick as Windows 7, Mac OS X
,----[ Quote ]
| Looking back to the genesis of Ubuntu 9.04 six months ago, I suspect that its
| subtle but powerful changes are due to the new user interface team that
| Ubuntu founder Mark Shuttleworth said at the time he would put in place. If
| so, that team has already earned its paychecks and even more, and we're
| looking forward to seeing what another six months of development will
| produce.
|
| In the meantime, kudos to Ubuntu 9.04: you got game.

| the Compiz Fusion 3D desktop, which has enables some really cool effects. Of
| course, for this feature to function you need a 3D accelerated graphics card.

Ubuntu 9.04 Review - Desktop Emphasis on the Jaunty Jackalope
,----[ Quote ]
| First, my only complaint with this release is that it gave me very little to
| write about. Very few earthbreaking features, but rock solid stability.
|
| But. The But. This is the Distro. The Distro that has finally won me over
| from the SUSE camp. The swaying points were the theme, stability and speed.
|
| To put it in better words, this distro takes over from openSUSE as my primary
| distro. At least, until SUSE 11.2.

UBUNTU 9.04 REVIEW
,----[ Quote ]
| I was originally an Apple-centric developer back in the days who then shifted
| to writing software for Microsoft OSes just because that’s “where the money
| was” and where businesses were nailed into. Apple has since replaced their
| original OS for BSD Linux. The Linux OS itself has matured and flourished
| since my original exposure to Slackware, RedHat and SUSE Linux.
