So your tired of Windows right, but maybe aren’t quite ready to go to an Apple (or can’t afford it). Then you might consider moving to Linux. Ubuntu has been putting out great releases, and best of all it’s free. If you aren’t quite convinced if you are ready to give up windows, you can even run it off a cd. I have been using Ubuntu Linux for over a year and it has been great. The Hardy Heron release not only does it have pretty much everything that Windows has, it is also a lot more stable and much less likely to get viruses.

Ubuntu has 5 flavors: Kubuntu, Edubuntu, Gobuntu, Ubuntu, Xubuntu. The difference between them depends on how many features you want and the interface you prefer. I use Ubuntu, but most window users may prefer Kubuntu. There are a lot of great programs (most are free) and they will do all the functions that you can accomplish on your Windows or Apple machine. So give it a try and you may find yourself switching as well.
