What IS Linux (and what it should be)?
,----[ Quote ]
| But there is a bigger issue at hand for
| Linux â than just the stigma of its past.
| With regards to society at large, on a
| grand-scheme scale, most people donât even
| know what Linux is. So to the masses Linux
| would be completely foreign. And those are
| the people the Linux distributions should
| be focusing on.

Do Package Managers Spoil Us?
,----[ Quote ]
| Do systems break less with easier resolutions
| due to package managers? Does it mean that
| the new user of today wonât be as experienced
| as the old user of yesterday?
|
| I think it might.
|
| Users in the past had to chip away and
| reassemble with less documentation and no
| package manager. This meant that the user of
| yesterday ripped apart systems and packages
| to discover how they worked and which cogs
| fit where.

New Ubuntu version makes software installation easy
,----[ Quote ]
| One of new features of the latest version,
| Ubuntu 9.10, which might appeal to an
| average user, is the ease with which the
| software can be added and removed. Some
| users might have found this process
| difficult about Linux distributions
| generally. Ubuntu has been making
| improvements on this front over the years.

Ubuntu 9.10 Software Center: For better or worse
,----[ Quote ]
| The latest Ubuntu release is out, being
| used, and being praised and shot down at
| all points. So far, the vast majority of my
| experiences have been outstanding. The
| hardware recognition is tops, all of the
| interfaces are slick and stable, the boot
| time is getting faster and faster, many
| sound issues have been resolved, and
| software is just as easy to install as it
| has been in the past. Or is it?
