I recently bought a laptop for my daughter. It came with Microsoft Vista pre-installed.
I paid for this in the form of a compulsary Vista license (the infamous Microsoft tax).
I carved out some harddisk space and installed Ubuntu Linux as a second option.
Ubuntu is free.
This provides a perfect setting to compare the initial Vista and Ubuntu experiences.
- Which is faster up-and-running?
- Which is sponsored by spammy advertisements?
- Which contains more software?
