I have just dual booted my computer with vista and ubuntu for a change.....
i like the way you can customise ubuntu but i dont like the drop down windows and find vista easier to use than ubuntu. i though it would be better than it is..

On windows you have to search the web for each app you want. On Ubuntu, you have a simple package manager that will download and install any app available for ubuntu. You can also add more repositories for even more apps. One click install man! or maybe two clicks or more for additional apps.; ▶ Reply to This
