Rating:  - Did The Job
This was my first experience with Ubuntu (have used Linux on my PC in the distant past). I actually bought the CD at the store and paid $18. I bought it not knowing it was not the "full" distribution (see Sarah's review below) and also not knowing I was getting ripped off because the full distribution DVD actually cost half the price!
Having said that, 18 bucks was the right price for me as I needed something for that day and did not have time to mess around with burning a Linux CD.... ... Read More

One benefit of Ubuntu is that it is more reliable and ... Read More
Rating: - Highly recommended
I highly recommend Ubuntu. I have been using it in place of Mac OS X on my iMac and it works wonderfully. For more about that check out my blog at [...]
Ubuntu is very easy to get acquainted with and has a slew of free software tools to replace what you are normally used to on your Mac or Windows. While most of the necessary tools come with Ubuntu, it offers an easy way of scouring the internet in search of more via its Synaptic Package Manager. Simply click "Add/Remove" and you can find any software ... Read More
