Windows
8 may have a nice looking user interface, faster preference and other little
features. There are some very obvious problems with it too. For one the metro
user interface is garbage. It clearly designed for touch interfaces and mobile
devises. Also windows 8 fells like a a newer version of Windows 7 with another
mini OS glued on, but have no fear there is another operation system. Linux.
Linux has many distros the most popular being Ubuntu. Ubuntu is Secure,
Flexible, and powerful. It is faster and more customizable than windows while
still being beautiful and secure like a Mac. Linux is easy to instal and its
even available to try out on your current computer from a USB or CD. In
conclusion Linux will probably become more popular after Windows 8 disappoints
the public.In my opinion this article is great for a new user to Linux but does not give so many in debt information about it. It does have a few interesting facts but not a lot of advance information. I did not expect to be disappointed by the amount and quality of information after reading other articles in Maximum PC, which people should keep in mind is an enthusiast Magazine. But strictly speaking for beginners this article is great. It Introduces Linux in a nice and clear way. Gives instructions on how you can try and maybe later even instal Linux in different ways. Besides stating the equivalents versions of applications for windows. In conclusion i would recommend this article to people who want to get introduced to Linux but it wont help the professionals.
