can i just say that windows has majority market share for a reason. imho
ubuntu isnt nearly as good in a number of areas the concern the average
user. for a start it isnt even possible to listen to mp3's or watch
movies in default ubuntu. windows is popular because well 1 as it is
already popular people just goto it and its in computer stores as
default etc but 2. because anything u can do on any other operating
system u can do on windows... play games, what have you. afaik no other
OS can really make that claim. from my experiances with linux / windows
i would personally say it works better " out of the box" aswell, which
the average user (and me) like. i installed vista on my mothers computer
and it didnt even need video drivers to run aero get hardware
acceleration or play most simpler 3d games, the audio was nice and came
with an equalizer etc by default. linux on the other hand has outdated,
imo poorly supported device drivers, i had problems with jacksense and i
couldnt even find a basic equalizer or what have you. imo linux will
start earning more market share when it can compete on the same grounds
as windows, and do more than what windows can do - preferably better.
until then im afraid i have to keep using windows as my primary os,
linux seems alright but it doesnt do everything i want it to - let alone
easily.
