[Ubuntu-SG] [Fwd: [Bulk] [Singapore Ubuntu Team] Comment: "10 Reasons Why Ubuntu Linux is Better Than Microsoft Windows OS"]

[Muhammad Heidir]

Hi Guys,

I thought we agreed on the last meeting to fill up the word press with
more content. Well, I've got a comment on my recent post and it seems
that somebody or someone wants to start a flame war which I don't even
bother to reply to.

Clearly  in my post, I stated that the list is not comprehensive and
reflects my own opinion.

Should I just ignore the comment, delete it or respond to it? Can I just
let you guys furnish him with more information.

Below is the comment posted on http://ubuntu.sg.

Ok

2. " Ubuntu Linux can be installed on low-end systems"

As can microsoft windows. Windows can run on very limited hardware, such as tablet pc's, and UMPC's like the Asus EEE PC.

3. " 3. Ubuntu Linux does not hog RAM and virtual memory"

That is in your personal experience. Last month, I was using Virtual Box on 8.04 LTS and the VM literally took control of all of my ram. The ram usage monitor in my toolbar said 100%. I couldnt do anything. I hard to do a Hard Reset.

4. "4. Ubuntu Linux can be customised to look like Mac OSX Leopard or Aero Vista"

Ok you're glad that your OS doesn't look nice on its own so you have to go COPY another operating systems looks? Wow.

6. " Ubuntu Linux supports many Multimedia formats"

Windows supports all of those formats, as well. Linux doesn't support silverlight properly. Newsflash...The OLYMPICS can be viewed online, in SILVERLIGHT. I don't see how this makes ubuntu better.

7. " Ipod can be synchronized using Ubuntu Linux"
Yeah, but neither GTKPod, Amarok, or Rhythmbox supports video podcast syncing, which is a big deal. Thats why there's iTunes. How does this make ubuntu better?
