There are many reasons why Vista is better than Ubuntu. For those of you who think that Linux is terrible and Windows rocks, here is my say on why Ubuntu is better than Windows.
1. No Viruses - Linux does not recognize Win32 Executables so the possibility of having a virus is absolutely 0%
2. Open Source - Unlike Windows, Linux distributions are open source and the source code can be edited and modified to the most to suit your needs. The majority of software available for linux is open source as well, meaning its free of charge, viruses or limitations.
3. Free Software - Every application and software on Linux is free and open source. You don't need to worry about licenses anymore and you can always find a better and free Linux alternative to a Windows application.
4. Easy to Use - This point may seem ironic but is true to a lot of extent. Linux Ubuntu is one of the most user-friendly and easy to use Linux distribution which even beats Windows XP and Vista in usability and ease of use. Unless you get fancy with the terminal or anything like that even your grandma could use this OS.
5. Ubuntu Community Help - Ubuntu has a very active support and help community where you can get answer to your questions and problems in minutes. Visit the ubuntu forums to get an idea of this.
