Why Linux is better

Definitely worth reading!

Read this article by abhishek about why we should use Ubuntu rather than using Windows Vista. Though I haven’t used Ubuntu till now, the article seems really convincing.

I never knew there was a company in Chennai which gives out free Ubuntu CDs to people! Usually when we order Ubuntu CD’s, by the time it reaches another release comes out. Its good to have someone who gives out Ubuntu CD’s in your locality. Also, It has been a hell a lot of trouble to configure Dialup in Linux. I had to switch to windows everytime I have to access internet. But Ubuntu’s help pages are really robust. I have to try these HOWTOs when I go home. Besides, Taggy is spinning a custom Ubuntu for Glug-T with all extras(Media Player,IDEs,etc)

Few more interesting links:

- Indian Ubuntu Linux Installfest (Glug-T )
- Indian Broadband in Ubuntu
- Opensource Interships

Btw, Happy Tamil new year!
