foreverdisillusioned's Journal: Bitchin'

Ubuntu kicks righteous ass. That's all there is to it. I've been perfectly willing to try Linux for YEARS now, but since every single distro did NOT work out of the box (didn't detect important hardware or outright froze)--Red Hat, Mandrake, SuSe, Gentoo (installed by my friend who's a Linux fiend), and even Knoppix--I have been very reluctant. For me, a computer is a tool first, and something to tinker with second. Ubuntu works right out of the fucking box, and it works *well*, and I'm overjoyed that I'll never have to touch Windows again for anything other than hardcore gaming. Kudos to the crazy rich South African who made it possible. Not that the Debian team and Linus and RMS don't deserve credit, but us semi-geeks need a distro, too.
