Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Ubuntu 8.04 DVD
My DELL laptop does not have an operating system, when i installed Ubuntu all of the sound cards, pads and internet worked automatically!!! it's amazing!!! i spent hours with XP and i still had problems.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Like it
Ubuntu is a great OS. I assemble computers from old parts as a hobby, and Ubuntu is a dream come true as the last step to getting them working again.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - About fifteen years behind
I tried this operating system, and it's prone to crashes and makes even the simplest of tasks, like keeping a spreadsheet updated or converting .bmp to jpg, real chores. It reminds me a lot of Windows in the early 1990s, quite temperamental. I'd go back to DOS before I'd try this again.
