Ubuntu is the greatest thing out there for people who are new to
Linux. I tried Mandrake, SuSE and Fedora Core. All were very good
but I had to try to figure out too many things. I don't speak geek
very well.
I threw Ubuntu on the kid's pc. It's old Dell. I fell in love with
Ubuntu.
I'm also a TV producer and wanted to switch my crew over to Linux. I
tried to install Ubuntu on my laptop and ran into problems. I really
thought I was going to have to go with FC because I had less than 3
hours left to make a decision on which Linux we were going to use.
The Ubuntu community got me going within an hour. The community is
what makes Ubuntu an even better choice, period.
