Apt-get makes things so much easier. The only thing I'd see near this quality is yum, but apt still remains the best. Thanks for sharing :)

I find Ubuntu a very nice OS and I just installed it awhile back. Now I'm trying to learn how to install some programs in it which I find it very complicated as compared to windows. However, I'm so glad to found this website and able to learn how to successfully install a program. Thank you very much!

I haven't tried linux and ubuntu although our professor teach us about them and they're introducing good feedbacks in using linux. I am considering it for future needs.
