Re: About Ubuntu...

HI Suresh,

Long time since I came online here

Well- I have used UBUNTU on dual boot on my desktop (never wanted to mess with my Laptop ) It works quite beautifully and it is definitely - by far - one of the most user friendly Linux flavour.

If you want to use Linux for programming purposes, you might want to try out SUSE Linux - which is pretty good. Or best, SOLARIS 10 that has real good tools/suppport for Java.

Well, UBUNTU definiltely has very good Java support and quite user friendly. So, if you intend to use linux as your main OS, UBUNTU is your best bet.

Cheers!
Kalayama
