Rating:  - Top contender in the personal computing market
For years I have wished to replace Microsoft on my home PC with Linux. It seems every new version of Microsoft software required more and more memory and greater CPU horsepower. I had used Linux at work and knew it was generally faster. The problem was always a bad experience in the past where I attempted to install Red Hat Linux on my home machine and had problems setting up my computer to be useful again. In the end, I gave up on Linux and went crawling back to Microsoft again. I did go ... Read More
Rating:  - Hardy Heron Review
I am writing this review in hopes of receiving feedback. I have not purchased the Amazon package, but have downloaded Ubuntu 8.04 several times. I have used Ubuntu 7.10 with no problems. However with Hardy Heron 8.04, I have not been successful

Rating: - Not the product, just the price...

Rating: - Great OS
I have an older laptop and decided to see what a Unix based OS would do on it. Ubuntu is great! Easy to install, it went to the web and updated itself, allowed to to download a lot if excellent free software including a full featured Office suite which reads MS Office files (called Open Office) and more clipart than I imagined to be out there. I find easy to follow instructions on the Web. Am very impressed with it. I am not a guru, am actually a senior citizen on a restricted budget so not having ... Read More
