Windows Versus Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| My home Ubuntu machine is also set up to
| periodically check for updates to all the
| installed software. It works as easily as
| automatic updates in Windows.
| One of the things I am amazed about for the
| above software is that all the Linux software
| is free and open-source. I see very little
| difference in performance from a userâs
| perspective, and using free open-source
| software has saved me several thousand Patacas
| by not having to pay software licensing fees.
| I am convinced that Ubuntu is a viable
| alternative for most work computers and can
| save businesses and other organizations
| considerable amounts of money. I also believe
| that it is an excellent alternative for
| children and parents for home computers.

All Windows applications (almost all) run on GNU/Linux too, but not
vice versa.

| In my dressing down of Wine, I noted that
| users are unlikely to find Wine mentioned in
| their ISV's support matrices, but, as I
| learned, two of the most frequently-
| recommended MySQL query tools I encountered,
| PremiumSoft's Navicat Lite and the open source
| HeidiSQL, owe their Linux support to none
| other than the Wine project.
