That's a trick question. Windows and Linux people are shouting on both
sides that their system is better than the other. In the end, both are
just tools. They're both a way to get a machine to do what you want it
to do. Each has it's own <a href="https://couponspirit.com/uber-coupon-
existing-user">selling</a> points and ditching points. If you're cafeful
with your system, either one will suffice. That being said, I am an
Ubuntu user for the virus protection. However, the in-built spyware
makes me question sometimes whether or not it's worth it.

Title:
  [Dell Latitude D430, iwl3945] Wireless can't be activated after
  disabling kill switch

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Karmic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  It seems that this problem keeps reappearing. This is exactly the same
  as bug 193970, but opening a new bug since the first one is very big
  and noisy already.

  Summary: If I boot with the kill switch off (i. e. wifi enabled), the
  kill switch works just fine. But if I boot with kill switch on (i. e.
  wifi disabled), changing the kill switch doesn't do anything and
  network-manager keeps insisting that the network is disabled.
