Ubuntu 8.0 review continued:




Ubuntu 8.0 review continued:


yesterday I reviewed some of the features of the latest Ubuntu. Well the biggest development of the latest KDE version is the implementation of the 3D effects.3D effects are great in this OS. Infact the given beryl 3D manger has almost all the options that one could ever imagine.Also it produces stunning results. The bery manager could be used to make your windows wobble,spiral and almost any other effect that you find in Vista or the Mac. The biggest advantage of Linux is the fact that it is open source. It means that you could also change the OS the way you like and help in developing the OS. That's Why Ubuntu has has been able to this kind of OS though it is free. As far as graphics is concerned, it is on par even with the Mac OS.The other aspect of Ubuntu is its support for a lot of packages. If you use itunes in windows, then you could try the Amarok player which is better than the itines music player in many aspects. Well it is a great player. Also for playing Videos you could use the VLC player that you've used in Windows. It is available for Linux as well. the latest ubuntu version also allows you to install games that are given to U through the synaptic package manager. The package manager is great and you could try it out as it has a lot of packages available for you. You could also install Wine software or Cadega which are great windows emulators and you could use them to rum some small windows programs in the Linux. For MS.office,you have a replacement in the form of openoffice.org. It is a great office software and you could try it on any given day. It is simply superb. all in all the latest ubuntu is great and you could order a free version as it also supports free shipping which is great news isn't it?
