Review: 3 top Linux distros go for different users
,----[ Quote ]
| At first glance, there's little to differentiate
| between the latest releases of the top Linux
| distributions: Red Hat's Fedora 12, Novell's
| openSUSE 11.2 and Canonical's Ubuntu 9.10. They
| each use the latest releases of open-source
| applications and are based on recent Linux
| kernels. Each of the distros also includes open-
| source applications such as OpenOffice and
| Firefox. However, a closer look reveals real
| differences -- in fact, each is meant for a
| different audience.
|
| Underneath the hood, each of the three uses the
| 2.6.31 Linux kernel, but above that, their
| differences begin to surface. Fedora and Ubuntu,
| for example, use GNOME 2.28 (the latest version)
| for their default desktop, while openSUSE uses KDE
| 4.3.1.
|
| [...]
|
| If you're a Linux expert, Fedora is for you. If
| you just want a good, general-purpose desktop for
| home or work, then openSUSE is your best pick. And
| if you're new to Linux, and your computer gets
| along well with Ubuntu, Ubuntu is still a good
| choice.

Windows 7 vs Ubuntu 9.10

| I was musing to my coworkers that if it had
| the following, I could switch from Linux:
|
| 1) A decent software packaging system.
| 2) Built-in Virtual Desktops.
| 3) Middle-button paste.

Windows 7 vs Ubuntu 9.10
,----[ Quote ]
| I love Windows 7 but I canât give up by favorite
| Linux OS either. So, I finally decided to do a
| Performance Benchmark Showdown to decide who
| gets to rule on my PC. Probably, everyone knows
| whatâs new in both of them.
|
| [...]
|
| All said and done, if you need performance,
| Ubuntu is for you. If you are looking onGaming,
| you have no other choice than Windows. If you
| are looking at Features again Windows 7 is the
| one for you.

| In Ubuntu's case one of its assets is the
| work done to support netbook PCs. Ubuntu's
| Netbook Remix interface is a very slick
| alternative for the smaller screen space
| common on netbooks.

Feature-By-Feature: Ubuntu 9.10 Vs. Windows 7
,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop
| Karmic Koala's desktop should be familiar
| to Windows users. Right-click menu
| shortcuts and personalizing the desktop
| features are similar to Windows 7. The
| desktop still isn't as "glitzy" as Windows
| 7, but users can get the eye candy of
| Windows 7 with a fast graphics card and can
| choose the "Extra" settings in Ubuntu
| 9.10's "Appearance Preferences."

Ubuntu Karmic Koala- A perfect alternative to Windows 7
,----[ Quote ]
| Before you decide to pay for a Windows 7 license, I
| would humbly urge you to first download a copy of
| Karmic Koala, give it a try for a week or two and
| then make an unbiased assessment of it yourself.
| You will see that you would not have to spend money
| whatsoever on a pile of software that crumbles at
| the least attack made on it. Do you intend using
| Windows 7? Please tell us why or why you would not
| use Ubuntu.
