5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Package!, August 8, 2008

By	Valdo Miller (Annandale, NJ) - See all my reviews

UPDATE: version 8.10 (released on October 30, 2008) is already available:
Kubuntu Ubuntu Ver. 8.10 and Linux Training Library 2DVD+CD

I have used various flavors of Linux in the past. Rather than update to
something newer than W2K, I looked at switching to Linux for personal use.
Ubuntu and Kubuntu have new 8.04 distribution polished well enough for
family use. My kids have no problem using the Ubuntu's Gnome desktop.
Running on a HP desktop, with a 3 GHz P4 and 512 MB RAM, it's running
circles around Win2K on the same machine. XP would be even slower, and
Vista requires at least another 512 MB of RAM just to meet its minimum
requirements. Ubuntu immediately was able to read Windows volumes, access
the local network, browse shared directories and print to devices connected
to other systems running Windows. Open-Office reads my existing Microsoft
documents and is able to write docs as well, for sharing with others.
Online support has been excellent. I haven't had to do more than check the
online help sections (help.ubuntu.com) to get my answers quickly. Very well
done! The included library is full of nice books for learning. Highly
recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beginning Linux, Kubuntu, January 6, 2009

By	Royal Meservy "Royal :0)" (L.A.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a really good operating system. I have an older computer (500 Mhz with only 384 Mb of Ram), put the disk in my CD drive and started the computer up. Other than answering yes or no a couple of times it did a beautiful load with everything recognized. I love Openoffice and Konquerer browser. I could immediately print an Excel spreadsheet (no fights over the printer driver). When I hot-plugged my USB memory stick, it immediately recognized it. A click and I was surfing the net. This is a full-fledged system with wonderfully powerful and useful programs. I'ved worked on PC's and Mac's, so this is new to me ... but I love it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased with purchase, August 2, 2009

By	New to Linux - See all my reviews

I received the ordered DVD's in the mail in 2 or 3 days. Everything was exactly as described in the catalog. I installed the new version on an old hard drive as a test. All went as expected and I then installed it to my working computer. Operating system installs in about 20 minutes. Tons of additional programs can then be downloaded as needed. I was really impressed with Gambas2, a Visual Basic like programing application. It was worth the price to have an installable DVD and all the documentation as opposed to having to download the CD in about 1 hour if needed. I was satisfied and I recommend this to anyone who is thinking of trying out Linux operating systems.
