All, I have been, with the help of this list, weaning myself and family from the world of Micro$oft. I started out with SUSE somewhere around the 6.* version. I followed a small crowd running the other direction when Novell started contracting with the Redmond community.
I landed in the Kubuntu environment. Kubuntu 9.10, in my experience, fell flat on it's ISO. I assumed it was growing pains of the latest KDE. I installed Ubuntu on my "it has to work" machine and then used the other laptop to tinker with 10.04 (starting with Alpha 2) of both Ubuntu and Kubuntu. Neither seems to be very spectacular in what it does. I haven't had any major problems, though I am far from a power user. I ran across this article this morning and wondered what other folks might think. I hope I am not inviting a flame war. I am still a husband/father/truck driver and don't have time to research this myself. I would like some comment from your vast pool of experience as to what this writer said. Most of my curiosity stems from the latter half of this article. Pointers to articles, other distros, etc. are all welcomed. If they come with your observations or opinions, so much the better. http://www.ghabuntu.com/2010/04/where-is-ubuntu-going-to.html Thanks, Bruce _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
