I’m not a geek, but I am a carrier of the gene. My son downloaded Ubuntu and showed me a bit of the features it offers. Frankly, I am blown away by it and can’t believe that a free program is so much better than Vista. Then again, considering everything I’ve heard about Vista, Microsoft seems to have set a new high in low standards with it. I wonder if the reason why MS releases so many new OSes is to induce consumers to buy new peripherals. I wonder how many new Vista users can’t get their printers and scanners to work. After all, I don’t think there’s been enough time to develop the proper drivers for Vista compatibility.
