Rating: - Ubuntu is solid dependable easy-to-useI switched from Windows to Ubuntu several years ago and I haven't had ONE problem with viruses or pop-ups or spyware. It's easy. It's solid. It always works. I trust my computer. It has easy-to-understand graphical screens like Windows. It does e-mail.
