is ubuntu superior?
,----[ Quote ]
| Due to the agreement between our Education Department and Microsoft I work in
| a Microsoft centric environment. So when our network manager recently became
| very enthusiastic about the latest Ubuntu release (9.04), I asked him to
| spell it out. This is what he said:
|
| Ubuntu is better than Windows (eg. Vista) as follows:
|
| * managing memory
| * easier to install virtual box, for testing multiple OS environments

Editor's Note: Ubuntu Is Not Our Savior
,----[ Quote ]
| Let's also remember non-Linux FOSS operating systems such as FreeBSD, NetBSD,
| and OpenBSD. From these also come herds of wonderful things such as routers,
| firewalls, drivers, network stacks, and stout high-demand servers. (Take a
| look at the top servers on Netcraft.)
|
| We don't need a savior. Saviors make us weak. "The most terrible thing to
| befall a people is a hero." We need a strong, diverse community chock-full of
| smart people creating interesting things. Here's to creative chaos, and all
| the good things it brings us.

Is there only one choice for the Linux newcomer?
,----[ Quote ]
| Meet Mandriva 2009 (One), a distro which states a similar level of “out of
| the box” compatibility as Ubuntu, but does it deliver?
|
| I decided to write this article to cover a topic that has been concerning me
| for a while. Whilst Ubuntu is a great distro offering “out of the box”
| support, there is so much more to Linux and Linux != Ubuntu! With that in
| mind Ive picked a distro which Ive dabbled with on occasion in the past, but
| since Heron 8.04 went on by second rig and Gentoo remains my distro of
| choice, I’d neglected the distro for a while. I think (if i’m honest) theres
| are reason for this.
