....is over, at least on my VISTA machine.
I put it on its own hard drive and messed around with it for a week or so.
Colossal pain in the ass.
Worked okay, but not very user friendly.
Bye, bye...ubuntu.

Like you enjoyed blowing "Rock" Doris I am not lying I absolutely detest Linsux losers, fanboys(fangirls in your case) and trolls like you. I could care less about their statistically insignificant desktop operating system distros. Which they can not even give away for free.

So it's completely OK for Vista losers, fanboys, and trolls to insult Linux losers, fanboys, and trolls, but not the other way around ?

I doubt I'll try ubuntu again. I don't like "kit" operating systems that much, and LINUX is a kit OS. I've been using Windoze for many years through all its iterations, and I haven't had any serious problems with it since the release of XP. I've got all sorts of hardware and software running under VISTA, and running quite properly.

I have been back so many times I cant remember.. but each time I leave again!
Linux is not good enough yet for desktop use the way I use computers at least!
Been trying linux for many years hoping to find that magic distro that will be as good as windows...
BUT NO LUCK....
PS when I say as good as windows I mean XP, not vista....
vista is a pile of crap that should be abolished.

With vistas problems linux looks better than it did a few months ago! lol

You and nearly every other new Ubuntu convert has been running various versions of Windows for years. Believe me, you aren't unique. I started using Windows with version 1.0. I used every version but ME up until XP. During that period of time, I visited Linux on a number of occasions. It was neat to play with, but just not there yet for the desktop. Finally, about 4 years ago, a version of Mandrake came out that started to show promise. I ran Mandrake and dual booted with XP. When XP finally started to get old and the security model looked like it was hopeless and Linux was more and more tuned for desktop use, I finally dropped XP completely. Haven't looked back. Linux has served me VERY well. My system has been incredibly stable. I don't worry about malware. My older hardware works so well that I haven't felt any need to upgrade it (like I was doing every few years in the past when Windows was the only show in town for a desktop). Linux just works and continues to work and the more I've learned about the logic behind a *NIX system like this, the more I've come to appreciate the power it offers. Windows friends who see what I've done here with Linux are blown away. I've helped many of them move on to Linux and none have regretted it and they go on to turn on their friends to the benefits of Linux. There is no big money marketing behind Linux. It's adoption has been through word of mouth and slowly but surely, more and more people are gravitating over to Linux. Whether you or anyone else does, I really couldn't care less. But for those looking for an alternative to Windows, I'm quite prepared to suggest such an alternative and dispel the FUD that some around here raise against Linux.
BTW, I'm glad to hear (really) that Vista is working well for you. Continue to enjoy it.
Love and Kisses, Doris

You are nothing but a linux loser troll. You come to this MS ng looking to cause a controversy by insulting MS and everyone who chooses to use their products. Whereas you have no MS ware at all (by your own admission) and, as evidenced by your juvenile postings, really and truly hate all things MS. You won't convert one person to linux by using the demeanor you've shown in this ng. You come off as an incredibly despicable humane being not worthy of believing for one second. Why you are here is fully answered by your hate filled postings of others who chose to use MS products. You obviously have no marketing acumen or skills at all. In fact, I doubt you could convert one person to liux based on your postings in this ng. You’re good example of a bad example. Other than that, you come off as totally worthless. Frank

My experience with Ubuntu is the same, it's like using a toy after running AIX, Unix, etc... If you want one with full features, use a stand- alone drive for your testing, don't dual boot, download the Multiple ISO images for Fedora Core 6 and you'll find about everything you need if you are a SOHO or business user. It's still not where XP is yet, but it's leaps and bounds ahead of Ubuntu. Ubuntu is for people that can't make other Linux versions run.

Easy there boys. If my memory serves me right, this is a Windows Vista forum. Now, if you people would like to debate about how great Ubuntu or Vista is, kindly take it to another forum or settle it like real men and start respecting each other's preferences.

Then it can do it. So, you're saying Ubuntu can do everything Windows can do but get viruses, malware and have to jump through MS' ineffective anti piracy hoops. Now you're starting to make some sense.

While Ubuntu is good for people that only need email/browsing and limited printing support, that's where it ends. Fedora Core 5/6 is what a typical computer user that needs more than Simple emial and web browing, but, it has some of the same limitations, but a lot less of them. FC is the best Distro I've used for all around home/business functions.
