Ubuntu Logo - I select for Ubuntu for several reason; Installation, Performance, Connectivity, Portability And Sharing, Price, Security, and A Look Ahead. Head to head, Ubuntu simply beats Vista on so many important points that Windows is no longer the simple, reflexive default. That is why I select for Ubuntu, plain and simple, because it's a beautifully done operating system, it functions as advertised, it's easier on the client side to get up and running and it costs less.
