Here are 8 reasons open source, such as kubuntu
(www.kubuntu.org) is better than Vista. Add your reasons to this list!
1. Vista requires activation hassles, while kubuntu does not.
2. Vista costs about $200, while kubuntu is free.
3. Vista requires more maintenance, such as disk defragmenter, while open source does not.
4. Vista does not have a live CD to try it before purchase, while Kubuntu does.
5. Vista gets infected with about 114,000 virii that do not infect open source software.
6. Vista takes much longer to install and get online than Kubuntu does. Kubuntu will get you online in about 10 minutes, while it will take a couple hours to get online with Vista, from a non formatted hard drive.
7. You can copy the Kubuntu Cd, and give it to your friends, and they will thank you, and so will Kubuntu. If you give them your Vista CD, Microsoft thinks you are a crook.
8. Vista has a bunch of advertising on their CD, such as AOL, while Kubuntu does not.
