Windows Guy Takes Ubuntu Gutsy To Work….
I’ve been experimenting with Ubuntu (Feisty) for about the last two months. In previous posts, I’ve written how pleased I was with the easy of installation, the overall stability and the improved hardware support. It was a nice improvement over past versions of Ubuntu which always left me a bit disappointed when something we take for granted in the Windows world just flat out didn’t work.
BeforeI go on, let me say that I’m a Windows network admin. My comfort zone falls squarely in the Windows camp. I make my living off of Microsoft products and think that by and large they work well. We can debate security all day long, but we use MS products for a reason at work, and the reason is productivity. Even so, the geek in me started to wonder just if I could do my job using Ubuntu instead of Vista. I made up my mind to try that today. Here are my honest observations about my day with Ubuntu at work.
