Product Spotlight: Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud

| If you are not sure about deploying a
| cloud, and want to give it a try without
| breaking your IT budget, Ubuntu Enterprise
| Cloud is the way to go. Although the
| installation of both controller and nodes
| can be quite a challenge, the reward is
| that you will not have spent a single penny
| on software in the process of discovery.
| And once you have your UEC up and running,
| you will find it performs as well as the
| competition.

Beautify your Ubuntu desktop using the software center
,----[ Quote ]
| There is nothing wrong with wanting to
| spruce up your computing environment. Sure
| there are those who live and breathe more
| than comfortably in a console environment
| but if you function in a GUI then
| appearances can matter and if it does there
| are more than enough options for you to do
| so in Ubuntu. In fact any Linux desktop can
| be beautified in this or a similar fashion.
| I have found two important programs for you
| to install from the Ubuntu Software Center
| that will allow you to drastically change
| the appearance of your Ubuntu desktop and
| app windows.

Ubuntu 10.04 to Include Chromium Web Browser
,----[ Quote ]
| While Firefox will remain Ubuntuâs default
| web browser, the Ubuntu community has added
| the Chromium browser to Lucid Lynxâs
| repositories. Chromium is the open source
| version of Googleâs Chrome web browser. In
| Lucid Lynx Alpha 3, the Chromium browser is
| super easy to install right form the Ubuntu
| Software Center. The current version of
| Chromium is from the 5.0 branch and seems
| to be very stable. Hopefully, this package
| will be kept up-to-date as Google seems to
| be upgrading Chrome at an amazing pace.

Linux vs Windows 7
,----[ Quote ]
| And this is where Linux can make a big difference. There's nothing in Windows
| 7 that Linux can't do, and in most cases, do it better. Our machines are
| quicker and more efficient. Our desktops are more innovative and less static.
| Our apps are more powerful, cheaper and less partisan, and Linux security has
| never been better. But best of all, we have complete control over the future
| of Linux, and it's success or failure at the hands of Windows 7 is in our
| hands.

Seven things Windows 7 can learn from Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| 1. More frequent release cycles. As Iâve already explained, Microsoftâs worst
| enemy has been its very long release cycles. Linux distributors, on the other
| hand, have the opposite problem â too frequent release cycles. But what would
| a consumer be more interested in, an operating system thatâs eight years old
| (Windows XP) or one thatâs updated every year or even six months? Fresh
| product releases means fresh marketing and Microsoft knows this. From Windows
| 7 on itâs bye, bye many-year release cycles and hello two year cycles at the
| most.
