Anyone using Ubuntu? How is the interface? How big is the entire setup?


Have been using it for a few years. Earlier I was using few other distros of Linux. Left Windows about 6-7 years ago; don't want to go back to windows again. Initially, I was using dual boot system; because, I needed a few programs running on windows. Now, all my needs are met with Open office. Besides Linux, I have a few computers running Mac OS X.

I haven't checked exact disk usage. Very basic Ubuntu and Gnome GUI might need about 2-3 gb. I have lots of utilities and programs occupying about 15gb.

You can download and burn a 'Live CD' of ubuntu and get a feel of the OS.
All Linux distributions and updates are listed at DistroWatch.

I am not a computer expert; basically learnt by trial and error. Will be glad to help you with what ever I learnt by using it.
