Ubuntu - 最好的 linux 发行版

Joshua D. Drake 是用了十几年的linux的专家，很喜欢他的这句话

the truth is: Linux is Linux. It doesn’t really matter which distribution you install; the only differences lie in how hard it is to get a given version to accomplish the tasks that you need to complete.

linux 发行版并没有本质区别，lxer大可不必文人相轻…他对linux 发行版的要求是

1. Stable releases only. Yes we are fully aware that you can “download that from unstable.”
使用 Stable（稳定）版本（我个人更喜欢追新逐异的测试版）

2. X86_64 required. The future of chips is in X86_64. This is also known as X64 and EMT64.
支持 64 位电脑（64位是大势所趋）

3. Recognizable community, business or otherwise. Linux is about community.
充满活力的社区（人气很重要啊，假如你们公司只有你一个人用 linux 那不郁闷死了？还好俺们这里有巩骚，：））

4. Usable by a non-geek.
容易上手（debian 给我印象很深，先用起来再说，大道理慢慢就明白了，我们不都是从打游戏才开始玩电脑的吗？）

5. Default features only. This comparison does not cover third-party products or modules.
包含最基本的功能。（不要象 windows 那样自作聪明地知道（指导）所有人的电脑品味，：（）

最后的结论是 ubuntu 是目前最好的版本。另外，2006年6月 ubuntu 就会推出 dapper 正式版，期待啊..

My professional opinion is that Ubuntu is the best of these distributions. Ubuntu excels at providing support to new users, from having over 650 users in the freenode IRC #Ubuntu, to channel support at any time, to an expansive Wiki and mailing list community. Their packaging system (Debian’s .deb) is top-notch, and the tools you use for updating such as apt and synaptic are friendly and versatile. Ubuntu is also the only distribution that I have been able to upgrade confidently to a new release without scheduling a server outage.

Lastly, all the reviewed distributions except Ubuntu contain a lot of “pork.” They typically require the equivalent of three or more CD’s to download and install, while Ubuntu fits on a single CD. That’s not a problem, because you can download any extra software you need directly from the Internet. In short, Ubuntu is the only reviewed distribution that tries to get it right the first time, by making intelligent decisions about what software to include on the CD and by providing an excellent user experience from the initial install to using the system six months later.
