Nice to see Ubuntu LTS listed beside RHEL/CENTOS and Debian "stable" .. hmm Ubuntu project has come a long way with it's emphasis on the desktop user . Most of the computer reviews( less geeky and desktop based one ) kind of equate Ubuntu to GNU/Linux . I am happy to learn from ubuntu project success how a community can grow if we remove basic/simple barriers from the new user . Ubuntu forums as we all know are very user friendly and welcome people who "can't google" rather than othe mailing lists which shun away newbies and scare them away :( Not everything is shiny in ubuntu . I definitely don't like the Wubi project - windows installer for ubuntu :( The question I always had is how far should ubuntu bend for "newbies " ??
