OT Ubuntu 7.10

[swift240]

Ok guys, I know this is off topic but......

I used a spare 13 gig HD and used Ubuntu 7.10. WOW I must say its very good indeed.

Ubuntu 7.10 has got a load of excellent software on board.
Its free and legal.  Try as I may, I need to be honest here, its better than XP (just my opinion)  So now I am going to dump XP and put Ubuntu on my 80gig HD and use another spare 20gig HD for Win2000 so I can run Amikit.

I am amazed at how good Ubuntu is, to be honest I thought Ubuntu was going to be full of cheap and nasty software, but wrong I am, the software is pretty good and its all free not like the stuff you need to run on Windows pay high.

I have got every thing running on Ubuntu as I did on XP.
If I can get Amikit to run on Ubuntu that would be great, but at the moment, its Ubuntu first and Win2000 on a spare HD but it will just be there for Amikit.

I also like the Firewall on Ubuntu thats there, very fine piece of software.

I do wander how some people critisise Linux/Ubuntu, I found it to be pretty good.  And I DON`T have MicroSoft looking over my shoulder.

Mike.
