I wanted an OS where I can download files from the net without the worries of malware or virus and I came upon “Ubuntu”. They had a very nice caption - “Linux for Human Beings”.
I have prior experience working in Caldera Open Linux & Red Hat, but somehow I got drifted & now landed on Microsoft world. I have seen my peers type very fast on terminal shell or on vi editor (especially kicha & deepak) and always wondered how they can keep staring at a black and white console without any graphics for the entire day. But distributions have changed a lot, no need to mount/unmount devices, it has become like windows (plug & play) and Ubuntu really rocks, it has the similarity to its windows counterparts and at the same time provides the security of a linux distribution.
Definitely give it a try.
- You can download Ubuntu from here Downbload Ubuntu 9.10
- Also there is “Google Chrome” , “Transmission Bit Torrent Client” and lots of applications.
- And entire thing runs great even on just 512 MB Ram on my VM.
- What more can one ask for !!!!
