Only Four More Days to Go!

and you can download the new Ubuntu, Koala bear, Ubuntu 10.9 from
[url]http://www.****software.com[/url] and it's free and comes with access to thousands
of **** programs!

What you can do with Ubuntu:

Email CDs
Burn the web
Rip Newsgroups Presentations
Listen to Spreadsheets
Scan and print music using the computer.
touch type with CDs vidoes/DVDs.
Watch HTML
Games like Send and receive a fax
Use a dictionary program that's much faster than Chess, Tetris,
Download all kinds of solitaire, etc.
Editing Translations from one language to another.
Programs in one including photos from a camera.
Learn how to use a book
Edit a touch type learning program.
Take Live Messenger PDF files over
Create IRC and Bluetooth use a data base.
Create with Instant Windows
screenshots messaging.
Make 10 different images

and much more!

What you can do with Ubuntu:

Worry about:
WPA and WGA raising their ugly heads,
DRM,
Viruses,
Root kits,
Spyware,
and
Malware.

The reasons that Windows is more secure than Ubuntu are twofold:

1. When *anything* in Windows needs updating or patching, it all comes
from the same source and a little orange star appears when any updates
or patches are available. It's a known fact that anti virus apps and
anti malware apps can only deal with nasties that are known, not the new
ones. Hence, it is very important to be updated or patched and not just
the operating system but everything that is installed on the computer.
Ubuntu has no central updating source and the user has to be checking
constantly for updates to their programs or face the possibility of
being compromised.

2. In Windows, when anything wants to install, you have to key in your
password. With Ubuntu, you have to click on "OK" or nothing at all as
is evidenced by drive by malware. Unlike Ubuntu, the Windows kernel is
not intertwined with a browser like Ubuntu is with a **** one
and the kernel is kept away and protected from the user account.
