Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The easiest version of Linux.
I've tried a few other versions of Linux (Red Hat, Mandrake, Debian) and I've found Kubuntu to be the most user-friendly version. Upgrades are simplified with Adept and Synaptic. There are many things that worked immediately. I had always had a problem configuring my sound card with the other versions of Linux, but not with Kubuntu. Of course, Windows-based games require Wine or Cedega to work on Linux. And, some (like Sims 2) will not work at all. But, if ever there were a Linux OS that would make ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - the DVD was bad
The DVD was defective. I returned it and got another one. THAT ONE was bad too. I returned that and got another. THAT WAS ALSO BAD.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best Linux distribution ever.
Ubuntu and its variants Kubuntu, Edubuntu and Xubuntu are simply the best choice for anyone looking for an alternative to Windows. All programs, including an office suite, media players, pdf reader and creator and much more, are automatically installed with the operative system.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Great Operating System
In respose to Bubba Franks' review:
While it is true that out of the box, Kubuntu can't play mp3s or DVDs with CSS protection, the software for these tasks can be easily downloaded once the system is installed. On the wireless issue, Kubuntu comes with drivers for many adaptors preinstalled so you can start straight away. And if it doesn't you can easily download them with a wired internet connection first. It is not the fault of Kubuntu that not all adaptors work with it out of the box, it is the ... Read More
