How would you explain that Ubuntu is fine for many people [closed]
How would you explain that Ubuntu if fine for most people who just want to browse the web, write e-mail, and so on?
Solution 1:
People are so entrenched in using Windows that telling them ubuntu is better for their basic tasks is not enough, you have to show them how ubuntu can be better/easier performing whatever it is they are trying to accomplish.
You can set up a fully configured Ubuntu box for them and show the differences on their daily usage.
You can show to them how a particular Ubuntu / linux app is more suited / easier / cheaper for them.
Solution 2:
I like to bring along a non-technical person, and have them explain Ubuntu is fine.
You can argue until you're blue in the face, but most people will just think, "Well, you're a technical person, of course it's easy for you." But when someone that they consider a peer who has their same (or less) computer experience tells them in a heartfelt way, "Ubuntu is plenty good", that's the best sales pitch.
