Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop Edition, nicknamed “Intrepid Ibex,” provides so much functionality and ease of use, at zero cost of acquisition, that it is really impossible to ignore. For anyone or any business not tied to Microsoft legacy desktop applications, Ubuntu 8.10 may realistically be considered a smarter choice in many scenarios.
During initial evaluation in the Test Center lab, Ubuntu 8.10 scored big in both performance testing and in wireless integration – - areas where Linux has had some trouble in the past.
Using the same, custom-built PC test bed loaded with, alternatively, Ubuntu 8.10 and Windows Vista Business, Ubuntu proved to be a quicker installation, scored higher in benchmark testing, managed wireless connectivity easier and booted slightly faster than Vista. Keep in mind that, less than two years ago, wireless integration with Ubuntu was pretty weak and non-intuitive – - especially for Linux newbies – - while Windows XP enjoyed nearly universal market support. Early results show Ubuntu has closed the gap dramatically.
