It is the first Ubuntu distro I have tried which mounted and make NTFS volumes on my PC available for reading/writing itself without me configuring anything while running it as a live CD. Good job by Canonical! I would strongly recommend Ubuntu (and Windows) users to use it to be convinced of the ease. Depending on where you live, you can get it from http://www.linux-pakistan.com (Islamabad/Karachi/Quetta)or from http://www.linuxpakistan.net(Karachi/or have it shipped anywhere in Pakistan). I hope this info helps those who want to get it. :) I have tried Ubuntu 7.04 and it is pretty good.

The import feature seems to means volumes-trying to convince people to try Linux just got eaiser. The thing is, people won't care that this is a new version, and that it is so easy to import, when Linux scares them off. People don't like change. Linux is easy, but different-and when my dad looked at linux, his first question was, "Where is the Start Button?" He got the applications menu pretty quickly, but some things became difficult-he had driver problems, software issues, etc. Then he wanted his files backed up. I had written a script that backed up my files to a network hard drive in my house, so I loaded that and ran it. He saw the terminal, and immediately got scared. Second story-convinced a friend of mine whose family had never owned a computer to save some money and use Linux. They tried it out. They still use Linux, understand the terminal perfectly, have beryl running, and have installed software not in the repos (convincing people to use an OS that makes you type ./configure and make to install software is hard). Therefore, the windows users will stick with windows. The Linux people will wonder why in god's name their friends defragment their hard drives and update every program manually each week. Have I seen Windows users switch to Linux? Yes-me. No one else I know has. Ahh, Ubuntu. The import feature seems to means volumes-trying to convince people to try Linux just got eaiser.
