I think three of the 'advantages' of Ubuntu are as follows: 1. It carries Linux just in 'one CD', as it contains the basic modules or applications the developers think are useful to an ordinary user. (Of course, the catch is that you still have to download a bunch of applications and updates for you to use other applications like wine, tex, postgresql server, etc.) 2. Easier and faster to install compared to Fedora, Suse or Mandrake and even Debian Sarge. (It's because you're installing from just one CD.) 3. The packaging is magnificent. Imagine a name promoting humanity like a diplomat or a beauty queen? You may also want to read a forum on the matter: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-6019.html Dong -- DONG B.
