Szeretnétek egy kicsit bosszankodni, vagy legalább egy nagyot pislogni? :D
Olvassátok el ezt a fórum bejegyzést, amit egy olyan cikkhez fűzve találtam, aminek a szerzője nagyon dícsérte a Lucidot, és kijelentette, hogy jelenleg ez az elérhető legjobb operációs rendszer, és bátran versenybe szállhat a Win 7-tel vagy OS X-el, sőt, feladta nekik a leckét.
Megszoktuk már, hogy ilyen cikkekre sok buta reakció érkezik, de én olyat még nem olvastam, hogy valaki ekkora magabiztossággal ennyi butaságot összehordott volna. Szerintem a tag az elmúlt 2 évben nem találkozott Ubuntu-val... ha mindennek amit mondott, vennénk az ellenkezőjét, kb. akkor lenne valósághű ez az írás. :D
Olvassátok, és derüljetek. :)

Perfect? LOL! Better than OS X? Guffaws!
Let’s try this little experiment: how to get started in computing with OS X versus Ubuntu:
OS X: Pick one of the high quality machines from the Apple store and buy it. When it arrives, plug it in, turn it on, create your account and you are done. Surf, create, and enjoy the best desktop experience ever engineered. No fuss, no muss.
Ubuntu: Struggle for weeks to find some hardware that may or may not work from some random PC maker, god knows what kind of quality hardware you get. Find the right “iso” file from Ubuntu and burn it to a blank DVD using that expensive copy of Windows 7 you *had* to buy when you bought the PC. Spend the next 2 hours struggling with answering obtuse questions about sound cards and account settings. Reboot, discover that the video card was not detected properly and spend the next 4 hours attempting to follow some bizarre and unintuitive command line instructions to fix the problem. 50 reboots later you may have a basic desktop running if you are lucky. Now try to log in and attempt to actually use it, again you’ll need to find instructions somewhere on how to work with the non-standard and un-intuitive user interface in order to do even the most basic tasks. Then you find that when you need some software like Office or Photoshop you are out of luck, and you will need to go back to that copy of Windows 7 that came with the machine in the first place. Even when you want to install something from the extremely limited software library, you can’t just simply drag and drop a single file, no, you have to use some strange proprietary packaging format that requires superuser privileges, and the installation of these packages often fails with inexplicable “dependency” errors, throwing you back to a menu or command line without any clue as to how to proceed. Even updates to ALREADY INSTALLED applications often fail with similar errors. Want to play mp3 files or DVD movies? Too bad, Linux doesn’t support that because Ubuntu is too cheap to buy proper licenses.
In summary, is Ubuntu perfect? Far far from it. It doesn’t really matter how many licks of paint you apply to Linux to make it look like OS X, it is STILL Linux underneath, and as such it is still full of bugs, security holes, and it still lacks even the most basic of usable applications (GIMP and OpenOffice don’t cut it, sorry), it still has poor hardware support (particularly for such basic devices as iPod’s and iPad’s) and cannot even reliably do the simplest of tasks you expect of a modern operating system.
