The modern fad or the operating system ( OS ) Linux is increasingly talked about in the columns of the digital press. It must be said that since its adoption by members of the National Assembly and the a large number of companies have started using this application, the alternative operating system has the wind roll. But that path traveled since its inception in 1991.

Try to use the Ubuntu linux on your system since it appears as the Ubuntu operating system is one of the best linux operating system. The first and foremost advantage of using linux based operating system is that it is available freely all the application which can run in windows is also compatible with ubuntu. Ubuntu linux consumes very less system resources which provides a better performance.
