Ubuntu or Windows 7? - OFWGKTΔ - 12-21-2011

What is better in your opinion, Ubuntu or Windows 7?
Currently i'm installing Wubi on my computer to dualboot it with W7.

Windows 7 I like more because it requires minimal set up, where Ubuntu you have to set up internet
settings and other things. I think it is easier to use Windows 7 and any other version of it if you have the
legal version.
Also not all programs run and Linux operating systems.

It's a tough call. If you're only using your computer for internet browsing, go with Ubuntu. Otherwise, Windows.

It's all about your personal opinion, and I think it's really going to vary depending on who you ask..

I'd say Windows 7, only because it's an easier interface.. And I don't use Ubuntu, but normally I'd prefer any Linux distro over Windows.

RE: Ubuntu or Windows 7? - OFWGKTΔ - 12-22-2011

Alright, thanks for the advice everyone. (:
I installed Ubuntu through Windows with Wubi so i can dual-boot it, would Ubuntu be faster in speed then W7?

It really depends what you're into. If you're just after general web browsing, go for Ubuntu because it's generally a quicker OS. You don't have to worry about viruses or anything like that. If you're into gaming, stick to Windows.

Then that's the perfect option. Improved web browsing and overall OS speeds - looks like the perfect combination for you!
