Ubuntu Linux Clone Looks Like Windows XP
,----[ Quote ]
| Now, the next logical question: Do businesses
| and consumers want an Ubuntu Linux release
| that essentially looks and feels like Windows
| XP?
|
| Hmmmâ In The VAR Guyâs own home his kids
| already move seamlessly between Windows XP,
| Mac OS X and Canonicalâs more traditional
| Ubuntu user interface. The âmythâ that desktop
| Linux has a difficult learning curve is just
| thatâ a myth.
|
| And besides, it doesnât sound like Ylmf OS is
| pushing beyond China anytime soon. Stillâ you
| never can tell how software will potentially
| go viral across the web.
