The Linux Desktop Experience For 2010
,----[ Quote ]
| But personally, I think Xubuntu is a really
| great desktop experience because of itâs key
| applications and the fact that itâs really
| customizable and easy to do just that.
|
| Itâs a great choice as well for people to
| experience for the first time the use of the
| XFCE environment as a desktop experience that
| you can build confidence in and get the kind
| of desktop you really want.
|
| And itâs a desktop that will appeal right up
| until the next release which I may add comes
| regularly so make sure you watch out for
| them.
|
| The XFCE desktop is a environment that works
| well for most hardware as well which makes it
| great for old computers and can really give
| your new computers a real edge in terms of
| being super quick in everything you do with
| your desktop.

| In 2008, The HeliOS Project built, placed and supported 329 computers where
| they were needed. Sometimes it was necessary to travel over 100 miles to do
| it. Admittedly, 329 computers doesnât sound like much. Not many at all in
| the scope of things. That is until you take into consideration one relevant
| fact.
|
| It was done almost exclusively by one man. One guy in a a beat up old Isuzu
| Rodeo with questionable braking ability and over a quarter million miles on
| itâthatâs averages out to 1 computer installed in a childâs home every 26.6
| hours in a yearâs time.
