Installed latest Ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop. For those who don’t know, Ubuntu is a Linux Operating System just like Windows or more than that.

Check out the features of this new version here : http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features

In my experience, installation took approximately 20 minutes, asking only 7 very basic questions to me. It includes a few great enhancements to enrich your computer experience.

• Wireless configuration was a breeze. It found my home wireless automatically and prompted for password. That’s all. I am online withing a few seconds. 🙂 🙂
• Software Center application provides access to 32000+ free/open source applications that are ready to be downloaded and installed with a single click. Yes, a single click is all you need. 🙂
• It contains an update manager that could update all my software including the Operating System with one click. I do not have to keep on downloading security updates, firefox, openoffice or chrome seperately. this cute little application lists all updates in one place where I can click “Update” and it does the rest.

You do not need to partition or install the software to see how it looks. You can experience the Ubuntu magic just by booting from the CD. Try it, and if you like it, join the revolution. 🙂
