Ubuntu Ultimate 1.6: A Feature Rich Newbies friendly Desktop Linux distro
Ubuntu is undoubtedly one of the most popular Linux distributions , it is popular with geeks as well as Linux newbies and even big computer cos like Dell are shipping their laptops with Ubuntu preinstalled . However Ubuntu usually comes in a single cd(and i guess there is a DVD version too haven't tried it ) so it comes with pretty limited number of applications and because of licensing restrictions it comes with a number of codecs , drivers for hardware devices missing .
Now installing applications on Linux has been one of the most difficult part for the Linux newbies though things have been changing with simplified installation procedures but still most of the Linux newbies find installing applications tad difficult . So well Ubuntu Ultimate 1.6 plays a role to resolve this issue "Ubuntu Ultimate " which as the name suggests comes with all kind of applications , codecs , drivers preinstalled out of the box and is based on solid Ubuntu 7.10 distribution hence offers the same repositories as the Ubuntu 7.10 distribution . In this article/review we look further into Ubuntu Ultimate distribution .
Ubuntu Ultimate 1.6 comes as a 1.6 Gigabytes ISO image . The first thing you notice after booting into the Ubuntu Ultimate is it's black theme , though bit difficult to read the theme does make UUE look quite cool and sexy .
