What do windows' users like most after migrating into Ubuntu? [closed]
Personally:
It's free.
Way faster on my machine than Windows ever was.
Finding, installing and most importantly uninstalling software, is so much easier.
No pesky pre-installed trial software.
I don't have to worry about viruses.
I know that if I had the knowhow I could do pretty much anything I wanted.
Also, it looks pretty.
apt-get is by far the most amazing thing I have found since I moved to ubuntu.
And the following are a few more things which are must have:
- Gnome - Do
- GVim (this is also available on windows btw)
- Banshee
From an user perspective I would recommend Ubuntu because of:
- Support for old hardware (old printers, scanners, whatever), although old video cards can be a PITA
- Centralized Package Management (easier program install, upgrades, and security fixes)
- Faster install (much much faster than Windows)
- Faster startup
- No bloat ware, no system tray madness (this contributes a lot to startup time in Windows)
- More security
