Advantage of Linux:The operating system is free,It is regularly updatedYou can buy the hardware where you wantYou have to register anywhere and share your entire dataThere is a living Kommunity and forums where you get helpMany would not need any additional programs other than those which are includedThis is not just for Ubuntu, but for almost all Linux distributions.Why say goodbye to MS and for binding to Apple?

When Mac comes as a hand.Drivers are no problem with Mac.Not know about Linux.But I do know Linux and Mac is equally good.What is the best is not it.All the two have their advantages and disadvantages.All two are still best than Windows.

Advantage of Linux:FreeComplete Open SourceNow runs on almost every hardware (and by that I mean not only computer hardware but also the PS3, IBM mainframe, etc.)Disadvantage of Linux:Graphics drivers are not optimal (a manufacturer fails Linux) and the open source drivers usually not so good as the manufacturer;The periphery is already a stepchild while may UTMS / HSDPA stick the driver for Win / Mac have to look at it, for example, with Linux as same applies to webcams, video chat with other systems simply do not work (except Skype).Almost no commercial desktop software for Linux that is ifYou will need Excel or Photoshop, and data synchronization is difficult with the phone, often on strike Linux when playing video DVDsMac (OS X) Advantages:It is actually an integrated solution of software and hardware,Thus, the manufacturer uses the potential of the hardware looks better;a very stable OS,who must rely on the use MS Office either WIN or Mac,medium Boot Camp Windows or Linux can be installed on every Mac.Updates are just as free as Linux or Windows, only the upgrade cost to us.There is only ONE OS X and not thousands as with Linux (there alone 5 “official” Ubuntu!)Well-designed interface.Also bring any Mac software with enough for “common” – to solve problems, chat, email, surf, edit photos / manage, edit, listen to music / watch videos / edit, etc.In conclusion, a few prejudices:Linux is more complicated, no it is not, no installation takes longer and is more complicated than Vista (I own 11th SUSE 1)Mac are very expensive, and no that’s not true if one views such as the Mac mini compares a same PC, that is extremely compact housing, low power, complete equipment, no noise, etc. You’ll hardly find a computer which is really cheaper.All these things are based on personal experience with different OS and are subjective.
