You should try it! I gave my mom, previously a windows user since 1993, an Ubuntu box with all the regular icons right there and as far as I can tell she doesn't know the difference. Been ~5 years now and going strong. She buys books, checks weather, reads news, emails, facebooks, prints things, scans things, video conferences, checks for ISS flybys, watches church, looks up vids explaining how to restring a weed whacker, all without any trouble at all.
- eviks 3y agointeresting, how are OS / app updates handled?
- acidburnNSA 3y agoA Linux feature called "Unattended upgrades" checks for os and app updates every day and applies them silently in the background. Because of how good the Ubuntu package management is, all os and app components can be upgraded without intervention. This is a big advantage.
