“When the average computer user hears about Ubuntu or Linux, the
word “difficult” comes to mind. This is understandable: learning a
new operating system is never without its challenges, and in many
ways Ubuntu is far from perfect. I’d like to say that using Ubuntu
is actually easier and better than using Windows.

“This doesn’t mean you’ll experience it that way if you’ve used
Windows for a long time: at a certain your habits begin to feel
like conventional wisdom, and any system that doesn’t match your
current habits will seem difficult.

“If you’re a MakeUseOf reader, however, you’re undoubtedly a fan
of free software. Most of the very best free software is open
source. If you’re a Windows user who primarily uses free software,
Ubuntu’s going to feel more comfortable to you than Windows once
you get used to it. And once you do get used to it, you’ll realize
that in some ways Ubuntu is simply better than Windows in terms of
ease of use.”
