The world of computers is definitely like an unending maze where an individual always has something new to look forward to and discover new aspects. With the introduction of new technologies and new programming languages, a large number of computer users seem to be hooked to this device. Some of the most prominent programming languages and operating systems, which have been launched in the past, include Windows, UNIX and Linux.
Out of these, one of the most controversial operating system is the Linux. A large number of people often complain that this is one operating system, which is a bit too complicated for the normal users. People who are generally used to working on the windows operating system may find it arcane to install a number of device drivers.

The "Ubuntu restricted extras" package will allow you to play most common multimedia formats, including MP3, DVD, Flash, Quicktime, WMA and WMV, including both standalone files and multimedia content embedded in web pages.
