Yep, I liked that remark also <grin>

A really well balanced article - none of the usual Linux is great, M$
is evil drivel stuff.

I was impressed that a person who doesn't seem to be a technical
geekoid had taken the time to do a fairly thorough review of Ubuntu,
without pitching it as the only distro to use or poo-pooing it as this
year's flash in the pan that will soon be forgotten.

Balance is always in short supply.

Thanks for sharing, Bob.
