An example: When I upgraded from Vista ( which was shit), I had no problems whatsoever with the process. It found all the drivers and everything worked like a charm. On the other hand when I tried upgrading a couple of computers at work to Ubuntu 10.4 I had more problems than it was worth. Finding drivers was an event in its own. And for a lot of computers you either have to make your own drivers or have someone do it for you. Good luck with that.
While Eventually Linux may be better than Windows at some time in the distant future, it is no where near as good right now. Compatability issues, driver issues and install issues alone should prove to most that 10.4 still has a ways to go. And until the majority of people use Linux, there will always be issues with compatability. |
I disagree I have had zero problems with ubuntu 10 since i changed from windows 7, which oddly enough got really slow to the point where i was shouting at it, and this is with having antivirus, firewall, spyware, and spam protection, at some point i just got really fed up with windows to be honest i can't stand windows anymore and I am realy happy with ubuntu now and no problems finding any drivers, but it does help if you check the compatibility before you change OS








that goes to Ubuntu 10.4
