The “GUTSY” Ubuntu feeling

General  by: Tasnim Ahmed Add comments

OK, Ubuntu 7.10 aka Gutsy Gibbon is out, so what are you waiting for?

I have never seen any operating system upgrade itself so smoothly, apart from the nVidia proprietary issue on which Ubuntu has no control everything was without human intervention.

The feel of the operating system is very solid, getting any kind of application I need, or would need is just a mouse click and a few mega-bytes away. Now why would I anybody want to use windows? Even if you are not sure that it is that good, just give the live CD a try and you would find yourself installing it soon after.

For those who are using other linux distros would also want to use Ubuntu to answer all the questions raised by Windows or Mac OS X users.

  • In fact Linux has come a long way since I first installed it in 1996, it had a total nightmare installation and configuration compared to Windows 3.1
  • Then the phase of KDE beta started when Linux was building a UI copying visually Windows but secretly creating a foundation which was to outclass the win kernel in the days to come
  • Finally now we see the tables have turned and Nautilus features have been copied by the guys in Seattle to integrate in Vista, but even then the same hardware running Ubuntu gives Vista a run for its money in performance and visual effects, not even mentioning the hundreds of applications you can install so much easier in Ubuntu which was the advantage windows had a decade ago!

UBUNTU! for humanity!
