i never used linux but think that this will help linux users to install software’s as we used to install on windows.
installing software on linux is really a very difficult task.
i have done it only one time when i was installing WAS server on linux and it consumes my hole day then after i never tried to use linux
Actually, linux has an extremely simple installation system in general. Unlike windows (in whose “web driver search” always failed in my experience), it usually suggested packets to be downloaded automatically and it actually worked. Of course, sometimes it is a pain to make hardware work properly as it is specially designed to work only on Windows. Taking that into consideration and the fact most my equipment functions perfectly on Linux and some does not even work on windows properly I’d say I like Linux better.
I’m don’t really know much about technology though. I’m talking from a consumer’s POV.
