Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
My netbook died last week. The ssd drive is not booting. Kaput.
I had been using it a lot beforehand, in spite of its dire hardware performance - to be fair, with only 512mb or RAM and a painfully slow 8mb ssd drive, I shouldn't expect much.
The reason why is Kubuntu.
I installed Kubuntu a few months ago as a fun experiment only to be utterly smitten by its Plasma interface. It is, to me, probably the easiest, most practical, cleanest, most stable, eye pleasing interface I have worked on. I just love it!
I don't think I will go back to Ubuntu/Gnome in the near future. Kde is, to my taste, miles ahead of Gnome, Windows 7, and it equals the OS.x interface in many aspects. I am also convinces that not-IT-literate users will find their way around it very quickly, and experienced Windows users will take to it in a beat.
So now I am missing my netbook. Terribly. If anybody wants to donate a drive for my Acer Aspire One, it will be much appreciated. In the meantime, I am using my phone (htc wildfire - Android 2.2) for most stuff (more about that in a later post).
