Nice review, this kind of articles help promote ubuntu to the non-tech audience which is great. Maybe someone could contact them and talk about the spanish ubuntu derivatives that exists, which would solve some of the inconvenience pointed out about the lack of proper spanish translation and maybe tell them that in april they will have a much more polished release, solving some of this inconveniences. <div>On 1/10/06, Quim Gil <<a href="mailto:qgil@desdeamericaconamor.org">qgil@desdeamericaconamor.org</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> The Consumers and Users Association of Spain has published a report comparing Windows XP, Mac Os X and Ubuntu. The conclusion is that Ubuntu offers more: <a href="http://mcs.ocu.org/map/show/26131/src/248791.htm"> http://mcs.ocu.org/map/show/26131/src/248791.htm</a> The OCU is a widely known organisation in Spain and it focus in all kind of products and services i.e. chicken meat, antiperspirant deodorants, mortgages, holiday trips... The report is not techie, nor based on a preliminary vision that "free software is better by nature". Interesting, I hope this will have an impact in the mass media. FYI, the resumee for Ubuntu: Initial configuration: good. Folders and files management: good System management and confoguration: good/acceptable Network options configuration: good Security: good Help: acceptable (good/acceptable if you know English) Applications included: Office: good Multimedia: acceptable Internet: very good Improvements and ampliation: Additional software: acceptable (very good with Synaptic) Devices: acceptable Operative system update; very good -- Quim Gil - <a href="http://desdeamericaconamor.org">http://desdeamericaconamor.org</a> -- sounder mailing list <a href="mailto:sounder@lists.ubuntu.com">sounder@lists.ubuntu.com</a> <a href="http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/sounder"> http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/sounder</a> </blockquote></div>
