    This is the most effortless working Linux distribution I have seen. I have installed on various computers, from a 7 year old Sony VAIO to a 1 year old Dell XPS, and it just works. The only knocks I have are common with Linux -- it can be difficult to figure out what you need to do in order to tweak it to your liking. It doesn't play DVD's right away, but there is plenty of help to get things going on any number of Ubuntu forums. I was even able to get wireless working on various laptops without any difficulty, which is saying a lot for Linux. Great distro!

    I love Ubuntu. Working at IBM, I tried their Open Client, which is based on Red Hat, as well as Suse. But, Ubuntu stole my heart. With VirtualBox, I have all the Windows I need. The load is easy, the drivers work, the whole package is there. I use a bit of KDE, a bit of Gnome, but there is no going back. Come to the dark side - we have cookies. {8^{>
