Ubuntu Linux: I Like It, It Doesn’t Like Me

“Like my colleague Jason Perlow, I quite like the
Ubuntu Linux operating system. I use it as the operating system for
my home server, and prefer it for server systems professionally. At
home I use the desktop version, configured to act as a server as
well as a desktop system.

“My primary system, however is a Lenovo Thinkpad X100e laptop
installed with Windows 7 64-bit. For both my personal use and my
work as a system administrator, I use quite a few apps for work and
personal use that are typically only usable under Windows or
Mac.

“Normally I run Ubuntu in a virtual machine on my laptop for
network diagnostics. This week, however, I had the urge to try
getting all of my applications and tasks migrated to a Ubuntu
system.”
