Windows 7 meets Ubuntu 9.10

“Next week, Microsoft’s Windows 7 operating system will
officially be released to users. And the week after that will see
the release of Ubuntu 9.10, or Karmic Koala, the latest release of
Ubuntu Linux. We look at what users can expect from both these
releases.

“Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala)

“Karmic Koala is the latest in a long line of six-monthly
releases from the Ubuntu development team. With a substantially
quicker release cycle than Microsoft’s Windows roadmap, the changes
in Karmic Koala since Jaunty in April are fairly limited. The
Karmic Koala release is also the latest long-term-support release
of the operating system which means it is inherently more
conservative than other releases as it is designed with enterprise
users in mind.”
