Now is the time to learn Linux

Posted by vntutor on May 14, 2007

Hello all,

How do I start writing for this bog? Just only one word ”Ubuntu” :)
I have installed the lastest version of Ubuntu, one of the most successful Linux distributions, on my old laptop. It is not difficult to setup this operating system. You can also do that by dowloading Ubuntu and read this guide to know how to setup Ubuntu 7.04 step by step.

The best thing I like is that I can play with LiveCD which is built to run only off the CD without needing to be installed, before I have a full installation. This is a good tool to know what are new features supported from the operating system. Moreover, It is also used to test hardware on your laptop. I have never seen this feature in Windows.

Great! It works  well and now is the time to learn Linux.

Thanks Ubuntu team!
