Review:
In a few years hardly, Ubuntu became the most popular Linux distribution. Simple to use and configure, provided with a profusion of software, it succeeded in making Linux gravitational for the general public.
The installation is carried out directly since Live CD which can be also used to launch the system without touching with the hard drive. Entirely graphic, the process does not present any particular difficulty. The majority of the recent software settle without encumbers and one reaches a completely operational system after the first restarting.
The utilities of system requirements are even simpler to use, in particular Ubuntu Software Center which centralizes all the operations of installation and updates of software.
The great classics like OpenOffice.org and Firefox are also of the part. Installed by defect, they supplement the applications Gnome like Evolution, a customer email compatible with Outlook, and Empathy, a customer of instant messaging compatible with Yahoo, MSN, Jabber, AIM and Google Talk.
Ubuntu is a Linux distribution free and powerful which will be appropriate to the newcomers as with the confirmed users of the free system. A sure value.
