“Ubuntu Linux is the most well-known Linux OS, and it’s
presented as the user-friendly, free alternative to Windows that
doesn’t need a powerhouse machine. It’s the Linux that, they say,
is supposed to provide a nice transition away from Windows and into
the peace, love, and understanding of the Free Software world. Well
no, Ubuntu. I’m done with you.…
“So I guess the target audience for Ubuntu is people who have
machines that are nearly, but not quite, powerful enough to run
Windows 7, but who don’t have a Windows license already, and who
aren’t comfortable enough tinkering with computers to use a
different Linux OS. Seems like a tiny audience to me.”
