winuxchrosh Posted November 18, 2009 Report Posted November 18, 2009 For those who are not familiar with Ubuntu, its an operating system from Linux distribution. Windows 7 and Ubuntu 9.10 were released nearly at the same time. Which one do you think is better than the other? Windows 7 is more on the GUI advantage, while Ubuntu 9.10 has its security and stability to boast. While its true that most programs are running in Windows platform, some companies now are starting to make their programs compatible with Linux operating systems.
NClaus Posted December 2, 2009 Report Posted December 2, 2009 Well, I know how great Linux is, considering that it's an open source program. But I am used to Windows. If I need to upgrade my OS (currently I am using Windows XP 2003) and I have money, I will go for Windows 7.
Burton Posted December 3, 2009 Report Posted December 3, 2009 I'm wondering how well my Windows XP software will run on Windows 7. I have some virtual musical instruments in the form of VST that I'd like to keep running on my next computer. I hope that the companies that sell them have upgrades, if necessary. I kind of feel like I dodged a bullet with Vista.
meiguoren Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 If it were up to me, I'd switch all of my home computers over to Ubuntu but my wife would probably kill me. She is very comfortable with Windows and doesn't want to learn a new OS.
