Ubuntu

I had been using Windows Vista for almost a year on an HP multimedia desktop. During the last year, this computer crashed four times.

I decided it was time to try a free Linux operating system. I selected one called “Ubuntu”. I read a lot about it and decided it was the one to try since it had educational applications which could easily be added in an additional CD called Edubuntu. I tried to download Ubuntu directly from the internet but continued to have CD errors so I requested a free CD on their website. It arrived within a few weeks. I also asked for a copy of Edubuntu.
