Why Ubuntu is harder than Windows
,----[ Quote ]
| Installing Software:
| To install a piece of software on Windows
| you just follow a few easy steps. First
| you go to the store and buy the software,
| then you pop the CD into your disc drive,
| enter the CD key, wait for the software to
| install itself onto the hard drive, and
| you are good to go! Be sure to put the CD
| and key in a safe place in case you ever
| need to reinstall the software.
|
| On Ubuntu to install a piece of software
| you open the software center. Type in the
| name of the software you are looking for
| (or browse by category), click install,
| and wait for the software to download and
| install.
|
| Default Software:
| Windows offers a fantastic default
| software install. Need to write a paper?
| No worries, Windows has the feature-rich
| Wordpad. Want to surf the net? Internet
| Explorer has always provided a safe
| webrowsing experience.
|
| Ubuntu's default software selection is
| somewhat disappointing. It has a full
| featured word processor, spreadsheet
| editor, and presentation creator. I know
| most people don't use facebook or twitter,
| but just in case you do Ubuntu includes
| Gwibber, a software that fully integrates
| your social networking with your desktop.
| For webrowsing Ubuntu only has Firefox and
| if you want to instant message Ubuntu's
| Empathy only supports facebook, AIM,
| yahoo, MSN, IRC...

Linux User? 7 Good Reasons to Go Back to Windows
,----[ Quote ]
| 1. The Sky is Blue
| And so is Heaven! BLUE! Why do you think
| the screen goes blue from time to time in
| your Windows system? That's a reminder of
| what is to come and what is in store for
| you once Windows gets to be 8. A vertical
| infinity of BLUE SCREENS! Surely, you
| don't want to miss it, do you?
|
| 2. Less Clutter Means SOMETHING
| It means what? How would I know?? You have
| to meditate to get the answer! Windows XP
| gave you Explorer and Windows Movie Maker.
| Vista didn't give you Movie Maker, but
| gave you a demon--stration of Office 2007!
| Windows 7 Starter didn't give you
| anything! Meditate with me: Less is more,
| less is more, less is more...

What Linux cannot do.

| It does not have a:, c: d: to z: drives. Linux does not see internal drives,
| partitions and external devices as seperate drives. According to Linux (and
| every *nix based operating system) every piece of hardware is treated as a
| file. Even the computers memory, the internal busses, USB devices, mouse and
| keyboard are all files under Linux. To use these devices is all done in
| exactly the same way. Reading and writing to the relevent file. They are
| called devices only for our benefit.
