The awesome looking Ubuntu
Guys recently i have downloaded and installed Ubutu, its awesome, all programs are pre installed, even instant chat messenger( all yahoo, gtalk, and other services are bundled in one) ,firefox, video and audio player, and even more. I am very excited to have this beautiful OS on my system. The most important thing is that Linux is virus proof, i am happy that i am far far way from virus, torjan and other worms.

Re: The awesome looking Ubuntu
LOLz haha, our Mr.Sequrity Specialist sure has lot to learn.
Anyways, Ubuntu does have a root password and you can change it and indeed access all the root level operations. Stop the FUD please!

Offcourse.
Ubuntu(Linux) can do everything which Windows can do.
You can use Brasero for burning cd's. There are other alternatives too like K3B(simply superb), Nero Linux(Linux version of nero).

Re: The awesome looking Ubuntu
Guys, now chill please! He said what he said, don't go around mocking him. We had our times too, so it's all just in the learning curve, although honestly I didn't understand why he brought the RHCE angle into it but let it rest now.
To the OP, great you have found something you like in Ubuntu. All the best.

Re: The awesome looking Ubuntu
but One I Can Say That "linux"is King Windows Cannot Do Anything As Linux [fedore,suse.11]
Linux Is Greater Version Than Windows --------> I Hardly Recommend To Use The Fedora9 Or Open Suse 11----------> Its Latest Linux Versions
Ubuntu Is Not Virus Proof

Re: The awesome looking Ubuntu
well...i use Ubuntu  Some times Arch Linux too
There is no OS great...its just what suits you best is what you use. I like freedom so I use linux. The feeling of control over every in and out. You are not restricted that whats cool about it.

Windows also gives me control. It let's me pull out as many hair as I want every time it crashes or has a virus. There are absolutely no restrictions.

Re: The awesome looking Ubuntu
Yup I was kinda krazzy about antiviruses, antispywares and every kinds of other anti*wares and firewalls. It was a lovely experience, thanks to slow downs after few months and then reinstall opportunity. Added the bonus BSODs too  Oh I dont remember if i ever read EULAs. Sometimes a few hiccups in registry and you get another opportunity to pop in cd for refreshement. But then there are gazillions of third party softwares to fix these things only  Nostalgia
