Ubuntu Is Good, But Is It Reliable Yet?
Windows Vs Ubuntu
I have met a lot of people who confidently said “I have received my free CD. I am ditching Windows and switching to Ubuntu”. Ubuntu is good when it comes to uniqueness and free doorstep delivery. I am a Ubuntu fan, and I too admire it’s uniqueness. It’s Open Source, has a great GUI, features are good enough and is also capable of performing many activities that a Windows operating system can perform. But, as of now it’s not yet stable. And that’s what the development stage is all about.
It’s true that Ubuntu has a long way to go to grow into a “complete operating system” to actually compete with the “accessible capabilities” of Windows OS. When I first heard of Ubtuntu and other similar linux operating systems, i too was excited to try them out. I haven’t tried many linux operating systems but among all i found Ubuntu more accessible and user friendly. But, I had a terrible time using Gutsy Gibbon, Hardy Heron, Intrepid Ibex and even Jaunty Jackalope. Try accessing the General Help section on the ubuntu forum , you’ll know what i mean. And I am referring to issues related to stability only.
At this point Windows users cannot totally migrate to Ubuntu as the most common issues like stability(i’ve mentioned this above) and compatibility will creep in. Atleast for now, I am using Ubuntu for learning purpose only. Windows XP is still my primary OS.
What are your thoughts on Ubtunu and Windows?
