me personally i dont like either automatix nor easyubuntu but if i had
to choose i would have to go with easyubuntu. most of the things they
offer can be installed as a .deb file or from the repos without much of
a hassle. but easyubuntu is atleast supported by people within the
ubuntu community. easyubuntu also doesnt run some of the commands that
automatix does (that could be concidered dangerous) but i really have to
say how do you learn something by letting someone/something else do the
work for you?
