The Ubuntu Experience, Part 1
PC World recently did a feature article on Operating Systems, and named Ubuntu as their favorite Linux distribution. I decided to document my experience working with Ubuntu, and this first article, Part 1, will detail my experience installing and updating Ubuntu. I'm using the latest version of Ubuntu, 6.1.
Installation was rather straightforward, and finished quickly in comparison with other OSs, like Windows XP Pro. I only had to fill in a few small details at the beginning; it then did the rest of the work, allowing me to get in some study time in the process. The only thing worth writing home about was how amazingly easy it was. Like, really: is it legal to make an installation so smooth?
