  • What most people don't realize is that Ubuntu is free while Windows is not.

  • I lost windows aero in vista

  • why dont you show that windows can play games and ubuntu cant

  • @urbanninja388 ubuntu can play games through a couple of apps(playonlinux and WINE windows program loader).there are also a few ubuntu exclusive games like tremulous(well that USED TO BE exclusive)but windows no doubt will always have more games.

  • these effects are based on graphics they are not such a turn point in any OS

  • Do you think windows couldn't make this ultra hocus pocus effects bahahahahaha i do all that on my XP with tiny winy software and guess what it does more than that try it for your self even on linux you have to have a good graphic card and powerfull CPU otherwise you won't be able to play this shit

  • ubuntu 10.10 is great .vista sucks it lasted 2 weeks for me .

  • Compiz effects falling out ur ass there :-P.

  • holy shit, linux looks awesome

  • @lolofdoom It is, try it, I did a few months ago and haven't looked back since then.

  • Jesus Christ, just because it can look the same it does NOT mean it runs the same. Linux has a much more superior kernel rather then windows ridiculously unstable monolithic kernel. Debian > Ubuntu :D

  • @nickrohn93 dude there 99.9% the same plus the only reason why ubuntu is good is for good effects THATS ALL

  • @Darkrevolver101 The differences are staggering and this eye candy bullshit is just the very tip of the iceberg. Whether you like Linux or not is your business. But before you go making ridiculous observations I suggest you educate yourself.

  • @runaway2me80 linux only is good for work only. Not gaming nor editing photos. Wine is just something retarded crap you use to game. plus it isnt fair to judge a site with more scripting too instead of a game that is suppose to run with limited scripts. Also, I had linux before my dad uses it,my mom is a mac, and im a pc and i say linux is an ok computer it just needs a but load of improvements.

  • @Darkrevolver101 actually you can play games in wine so just don't talk about something you don't know and wwhat about gimp

  • @Darkrevolver101 actually you can play games in wine so just don't talk about something you don't know and what about gimp

  • @xerfoify exactly i know about wine i have used it plenty of times. Plus i never use linux on editing photos cause i know for a fact that gimp isnt made for linux.

  • oh this kinda fun. why dont u use some other distro like gentoo or lfs to show how its cool and how much pain in the ass is to make beryl(compiz) working,

  • windows is a fucking virus, you don't have to think about virus, licences or any windows shit to pay. with linux you have all you need on your computer, besides is free!

  • vista sucks ! but windows 7 is the shit!

  • all the linux hatters stop hatin and find a better job than makin fun of linux.....

    we all know linux kicks microsofts ass!!!! so dont come up with stupid shit telling people to spend their money and get a good antivirus..... come up with a better excuse. Linux is faster less fears of harming it with a virus.... SO ALL THE HATERS STOP TROLLIN and make better excuses.... BTW why would you buy an antivirus for like $100 when u can just get linux.... put ur brains to work before talking

  • @zyad916 Well ur basically saying in a cheesy way WUNDOS SUCKS! but i have windows 7 and i like it. But it depends i like windows because ive been using it my whole life way before facebook since i was a little toddler with my windows 2000 but i guess its what ur used to or what u like all these comments are just "opinions" not facts and im NOT saying one is better than the other and yes i DID NOT SWEAR AT ALL UNLIKE ALLL OF YOU OTHER PPLE

  • @MrRobloMan alright, ill admit that i use my windows XP more often because of how there arent many games on the linux...... meaning that all my games are on windows XP..... but i would prefer linux to someone who is a businessman or anyone that doesnt play games on their pc..... because of less viruses.....

  • @zyad916 Ya cause Windows has lots of viruses

  • @MrRobloMan ya thats basically the only conclusion.....

  • It's interesting to read all this different comments about Linux. And it seems that there are people who are "born for Windows" and "born for Linux". Or at least they are addicted to their OS in a religious way.

  • no need in arguing to be fair, this video is just showing the similarities. everyone has opinions on what they like most. for example, i prefer windows as it is simple and isn't as buggy (in my experience) as ubuntu. however i really love the GUI in linux, and GNOME is great. but imo windows is a lot more stable overall.

  • anyone hating on windows prolly has windows lol. Quit your stupid Ubuntu. Even the Editor of Linux, says Ubuntu is a wasted project and has made Linux look terrible. Everyone is a hippocrite that hates windows. It has all the programs you need, at your fingertips, and more. What can you do on Ubuntu that you cant do on Windows?

  • @kprofscrts well, for one, i can go on the internet without having to worry about spyware, viruses, and gay ass toolbars installing themselfs without my knowing. And, i dont have to defrag.

  • @stupidvids0 how convenient, neither do i have to worry about viruses. Im fine using windows, and every installation gives you the option to install toolbars. so sounds like you dont know how to use windows. not to mention games lag and suck on linux

  • @kprofscrts oh just gtfo windows fanboy. wtf r u doing on a video about a comparison between windows and linux anyway? yur never gonna change your mind so why even bother?

  • @stupidvids0 i may never change my mind? well that depends on linux. If linux were to support all software, all graphics cards, all hardware, and is as user friendly so it can target everyone not just few select-THAN will i change my mind andlinux will be #1. but because they are loosing money, and loosing the marketing game...this will most likely never happen.

  • @stupidvids0 Personally, i can go on the internet on windows without having to worry about spyware, viruses and gay ass toolbars installing themselves. How? Google Chrome + Kapersky. Yeah. Spend some fucking money on decent virus protection software and stop using shitty freeware for once.

  • @OwNaGeOfDaLiAm um if you used linux you would see its not shitty freeware. and you can use chrome on linux. AND you dont need to spend money one some dumb ass antivirus software.

  • windows will always be better. smoother graphics, supports any program, no all nighters just to find something that works properly for UBUNTU (sucks). Not to mention i have a desktop cube on windows vista, it has better graphics, more options, i have a free dock from stardock website, which is extremely customizable..i can edit all my windows, and even password protect my desktop cube windows. I can write on my wall, and the command line is the biggest support since original linux. Windows Rocks

  • F**k Linux. I'd rather Windows any day.

  • @DrG241 cus your too dumb to know how to learn a new os. lol my grandma is the same way...

  • Well, they didn't really steal it, you see, it's OpenSource, that means everyone can do with it as they please.

    Should only be a matter of time be4 mac or windows integrate the cube in their system.

  • Open Source mean you can't sell it, too. You sell what someone give for free? You're such a parasite, aren't you? Or you aren't able to give alternatives. Or you admit you're beaten. Or you've no ideas. Or more simply you're Bill Gates. And all the other things.

  • No In the BSD license the end program doesn't need to be open source. But yes in the GPL It does require that it be open source.

  • Microsoft has stolen EVERYTHING!!!

  • yeah but it's improved everytihng too.

  • I agree, but improves the appearance ONLY. Functionality is the same as 5 yrs ago. Same brakes, same viruses... Windows is a big brainfuck in common. that's why I use ubuntu.

  • ubuntu is all apperance

  • no its not what made u belive that?. i game with my 5 year old laptop with ubuntu 9.10 on it. i do homework on it. only to computers in my house have windows my server,and mercedes benz made repair laptop and all are connected to a server and also has a printer and a 500gb hardrive connected through the server.......... my games i play "et wolf.,bf1942,gta san andreas,and more ..... change your opinion about ubuntu dude...

  • thats what Microsoft, Microsoft

  • linux definitivamente XD

  • what program so u use to record the desktop

  • Windows NT crashed

    I am the blue screen of doom

    no one hears your screams

  • compiz existed for longer than the vista effects, and beryl existed before compiz, so vista is rather ripoff from compiz than anything else

  • lol linux is still around?

  • Yeah and it is even better than ever

  • lol i kno such trash

  • My experience of Linux, it's very capable of emulating some of the features from Vista. But under the hood of the system it's much different. Sadly to get Linux to this level of Vista like features can be long a difficult. Windows and OSX are at home on the desktop but Linux still has a very long way to go. For now Linux runs better in a server capacity.

  • *facepalm.

    I do agree that windows and OSX are more STREAMLINED when it comes too affects, but most n00bs think that Linux are for servers, when really they really aren't. Compiz and beryl are more advanced than Quartz AND aero. BUT Quartz/AQUA and Aero look much better to MOST people.

  • does linux work on laptops?

  • because you asked this question, i doubt you have the knowledge to install a new os or use linux anyway

  • no I can install a new os and im fine with using gui but im not a computer geek to know every detail about computers because I have a life.

  • so you have a life because you don't know that a laptop computers is almost the same thing of a desktop computers ?

  • yeah he has a life,....Lolz..

  • Comment removed

  • Linux does work on Laptops depending on your System. It will run on Windows 2000 - Windows 7/Vista.

    I haven't got Linux yet. I have a school laptop so I am still figuring it out with ICT, I am not sure whether they think it will work with the school system.

    Good Luck with Linux!

  • Comment removed

  • Sure! Linux exists in many architectures and hardware.

  • UBUNTU for LIFE

  • @IzzYandPalpro lol i just fixed my moms old PC (one im on now) and im downloading ubtuntu from vista lol

  • Great going showing your ignorance, What the fucks that I don't like it just kuz. Its morons like you that fuck up our society.

  • Comment removed

  • ubuntu forever!

    why pay for software?????????

  • Linux FTW

    Ubuntu to Desktop for Freedom

  • I <3 Linux! It's awesome, I run Ubuntu, it's absolutely amazing the speed of this thing compared to Vista and the universal spell checker is useful for spelling things like onomatopoeia or hemophilia, not that most people need to type those, but it still rocks.

  • PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS Tell me that name of dat song

  • The first song is Clocks by Coldplay. I couldn't tell you the name of the other. Sorry

  • fort minor remember the name

  • es una cancion de coldplay y se llama "clocks"

  • the second song is called Remember The Name and i dont know the first one

  • Linux beats Windows lyk HELL!!!!!! Linux is much better and Stable than Windows!!!!! and it never gets viruses while its open source...dat guy said correct...more servers use Linux. The bottom line : Windows sux Linux Raoc

  • Sorry, but what is the name of the song ?

  • Actually linux takes up way more than that you jackass

  • you can have Ubuntu installed with 4gb, and about 1/4 the RAM memory you need to install windows.

  • You know what I hate? When people do a screen video, and put terrible music with it.

  • Linux The Best Opertating Sistem!

  • wats the song to this vid?

  • Modern Linux atm when it comes to functionality is equal if not greater than windows and mac. In my opinion Ubuntu 8.04 kicks the shit out of Mac OS X. The only reason I even use windows is gaming and that is the only windows. I run open office on my gaming desktop and on my Ubuntu laptop and it has the same functionality as Microsoft Office and it can even save in Microsoft office file types. And the best part of it is the OS and everything with it COMPLETELY FREE open source FTW!

  • Linux is better

  • You are only comparing different graphical interfaces, NOT complete operating system.

  • Everyone in the world knows Linux kicks Windows ass in performance and security lol.

    Did you know entire government + military networks are all run on Linux platforms, hell 96% of the Internet webservers are all run on Linux.. because its completely more efficient and secure.

  • Kicks ass? What does that mean?

    Windows takes about 80% of desktop market. Linux maybe 2%. And no, Linux doesn't run 96% of internet servers. Huge amount of them run on Unix systems like AIX, Solaris, HP-UX...

    Why am I saying this..you're just a teenage boy who doesn't know what the linux is....

  • Sir you know that Windows have 80% for the stupid myth that linux is too hard and people still think only "Hackers" can install it, c'mon really. Why linux doesn't advertise on the T.V? because linux doesn't charge any one for their system, hell canonical mails you free cd's to your house all the way from man island in the UK,

  • You are incorrect. The entire government and military networks are not run on linux.

    Did you know that You Don't Know? :o

  • Linux 4 ever

  • hahahaha!

  • if linux will be able to start games which r on windows more ppl will join linux family xD

  • totaly agree

  • Mostof the commercial Games are programmed only to run on Windows, the problem starts here.

  • hahaha he didn't find anythign to show in linux. except moving desktop and minimise XD

  • Is the Dual-Boot Menu can be turned off???

  • How did u do that?????

  • what it's better....windows or linux ? I mean,for a day-day utilisation...[gaming-movies-m­usic-messenger and others] ... what is better ?

    sory for my bad english

  • With gaming, Windows, as you will have to set up Wine or something similar to get Windows games to work in Linux

  • POWER TO THE PINGUINZZ!!

  • i think that for everyday internet browsers, email checkers, and office document writers linux would be perfect thats why im getting a Dell Latitude E series laptop cuz it will have an alternate OS called Instant ON which will run linux on an embedded processor

  • I think that this is really true.

  • is linux or windows better? anyone sub4sub?

  • Linux is better for some one that do not want to pay for an operating system, and for those that just check their emails everyday or just uses it to browse the internet. Windows is mainly built for applications.

  • you are so mistaken I do not even have word

  • What do you mean you dont even have word? AbiWord, Open Office. just like MS Word

  • that should have been "words"

  • how did u make the window close like that by linux?

    itd like the hotes thing :D:D

  • linux and vista are just as user friendly as Mac OS

  • I agree with Vista, but linux? Have you ever used linux? Have you any experience of how easy linux is to use?

  • i own linux and i have used it, i use windows just because im just more comfortable with it, and linux cant support most games today(just like Mac), linux is probably the overall better operating system, but the point is that the people who say Macs are so much easier to use are a bunch of retards because, if anything, i find it harder to use than anything out there

  • you know how I know you're gay? you like cold play.

  • it's not about which one is better really... it's only better if the other one suits your preferences, I run windows and i've seen lots of linux, and i've got to play around in linux and even run some of my favourate windows games while my computer was broken. Linux is different and does not suit my prefences, too much work to get windows games working on it, like command and conquer. I like gameing alot, so i'll choose windows over it. but i'd rather have linux for anything else.

  • Can linux get virus's? :o

  • yeah, but is very rare to contract a virus on Linux. No operating system is virus free.

  • linux IS the way forward, and even major companies are beginning to realise this now

  • I like linux and ubuntu. I have had nothing but problems with Vista, I feel ripped off! I have the open office and portable apps. I find it really good, sure, the word processor part or writer is a bit different, but similar to word etc. You get used to it.

  • If you're willing to put up with some headaches and frustration you might even be able to run MS Office on Linux via Wine.

  • open office rapes ms office

  • Linux is better for weaker computers, simplicity, and is easy to operate with support for Windows programs growing thanks to wine. When I mean weaker computers however, I mean anything lower than a Core 2 Duo at 2.8ghz, which is nearly everyone. Vista runs smoothly with little problems with most Quad processors, but not many people have those. Linux also has no fear for viruses, something that makes any computer with any version of Windows shiver at.

  • where you get linux?

  • google it

  • AND UBUNTU ROCKS AT 25 seconds to fully load!

  • Vista sucks when it shouldnt ...we all test everything they cant! so were basically there lab rats! Ubuntu is getting readdy to swing the twin blades of azzinoth at bill gates head because its getting so good.I havent had one problem with it and neither has my bro(which had a million viruses on windows) and my bros gf which always messes things up! Ubunt ROCK ON.Thanks to the wine developers for giving me 200 fps in wow instead if 75! Thats a huge difference and vista took 2 mins to boot!

  • ...that's another reason I won't go with linux... 'twin blades of azzinoth'... No geek-speak please

  • Bill Gates doesn't work at Microsoft anymore, so I'm sure he dual boots with Linux.

  • He said himself that he does not use Windows so it's either OSX or Linux or maybe FreeBSD or something.

  • ive had very few problems from vista and you obviously dont have it if you say you had a million viruses. if you did it wouldnt run. and if you do get a damn antivirus you retard. like a-squared its even free. oh and ive gotten arena and daggerfall from the elderscroll series to run without problems. and since they were disigned for 3.0 windows shut your mouth

  • bahaha "twin blades of azzinoth" fuck yeah!

  • linux must eliminate vista!!

  • lol i like how windows lags as it minimizes stuff

    windows vista idle process - 50% ram at all times

    ubuntu - running compiz fusion,a dvd, wine, 3 server clients and 2 games is around 30% lol

  • U cant buy a linux... Well, you can, but I'm very sure you didn't

  • You got ripped off kid cause its free.

  • Dude your song rocks..>!>!>!>

    Clocks=Coldplay

  • OMG!!! i want a LINUX!!!!

  • Linux it's excellente and bette then Windows Vista.

    The problem is that most people are so used to Window's inteface that they don't want to use Linux.

    About the games and some softwares that only windows has you can use the emulator "wine" and that allows you to use window's softwares in Linux interface. About games...welll I'm not sure. but give it a try.

  • Wine Is Not Emulation thats what witn stands for duh. =]

  • Well, Wine it's an emulator bacause it EMULES windows' codes and implements Window's API libraries.(basicly translate all the Windows code).

    So...yeah Wine is an emulator.

    check it out.

  • O.k if Wine is an emulator, why does it integrate in the O.S? When I run virtual box thats an emulator.. >Windows Is Not an Emulator. Thats what Wine stands for..

  • I don't think its down to the interface, cause KDE is very similar to Windows.

  • Maybe you are right about KDE similar to Window's interface, but remember that LINUX (Products)are ALWAYS updated every six month bercause daily they recieve thousands of e-mails with new ideas and new modifications.

    On the other hand Window's product keep having the same structure.

    That's why I said that normal users are used to the windows interface and they're just not much interested in getting with the new wave(open source)

    Oh well, thanks for your opinion.

  • I kind of agree with your view. <3 Linux all the same.

  • Linux like 5 times faster(cause don't eat so many resource like Windows Vista),more security,open source ya maybe Linux it's not so easy to use like Windows but is better get like cedega for games and wine.

  • i like linux but i like to play pc games i hope one of the emulators work good with me because what i play is 3D racing games =P any sugestions linux users?!?

  • Sure, Wine works good as an emulator. 3D games are free for linux.. Go for Ubuntu..I'm never turning back =D, besides dual boot until you are happy with linux.

  • Right on. Another person catches the free wave, and Open Source wins again!

    I am reminded of a line from Diablo: 'When this battle falls upon mortal ground, it is called the Sin War' heh.

  • Learn to like free 3d racing games?

  • i used to wont vista then i herd that is sucks

    now i wont linux xp is good but iv been using it for 10 years XD so i wont some thing new =]

  • Go ubuntu and never look back. Simple, quick fixes and amazing documentation, all for free!

  • ya linux is great i need to learn to dual boot so i can use vista and linux :D

  • Excuse but speak little English .. the title of the second song? Thanks!

  • "Remember the name" - by - Fort minor

  • That shizzel ownss!!

  • i hate linux because you cant download flyff which was my all time favorite game

  • Will Vista end up being a flop like ME?

    I am serious when I saw that at my wifes work that all the computer technicians complian about Vista. My wife works for a telephone company that is very large. They have business in B.C, ONT, Alberta and Quebec.

    They provide internet services and people have had trouble connecting as soon as they upgrade from XP to Vista.

  • I doubt; I myself haven't used Vista but it seems underrated in areas (not that I'm saying its Microsoft's best release). There still isn't a reason for many people to upgrade though.

  • Only the people that insist on having the latest and greatest want to upgrade. They are the ones that have not been educated about Microsoft and how it takes at least two years to get all the bugs worked out. Some just want to brag that they have the latest. I say so what? Some think that it will improve their security but IE7 has already been hacked. I run XP home and Ubuntu and I am happy. I still need MS for games. My favorite is Command and Conquer series.

  • No I have Vista because i like to play games from the GAMES FOR WINDOWS range and it looks cool

  • It is whatever works for you. People need to realize that it is about choice. Microsoft is still number one but Apple has its place and so does Linux. I need to run MS for command and Conquerer. However I prefer to surf the net with Linux because I do not get all the spyware, worms and viruses. I it about having a choice. If it was up to MS no one would have a choice but to use their products. That would be like forcing everyone to drive a Ford even though there are alternatives.

  • HELL YA I AGREE

  • Yup, thats why they microsoft made Virtual PC(emulates XP) until they fix all the glixes+i though this was about Ubuntu vs Vista not Vista vs XP

  • Trust me though. Even though people may say that Vista is as XP with a different skin the fact is that my wife works at a very large telephone company in Canada that also provides internet services and the computer technicians are always complaining about Vista.Also people that have signed up for internet services had trouble as soon as they upgraded to Vista.

  • funny, i use windows for games, and ubuntu for work. i find it very useful to have more desktops and more free applications..

  • And that's why vista ads the animated moving windows! Because you're confused!

  • all I see vista as is XP with a different skin, I have linux as my main os and xp for games, but I play on my gamecube and wii more then xp

  • i didnt know xp came with

    1)IE7

    2)Vista Aero

    3)Windows defender

    4)Games Explorer

    5)chess titans

    6)Windows gallery

    7)Windows media player 11

    all of these were made for vista-if you donload wmp11 on xp it has the glass window, that is how i know

  • yes but some of the codecs for running the programs are different otherwise vista is mainly based off of xp

  • dint forget about DX 10 the only reason i got it
