Why this Linux veteran runs Ubuntu

Karl points out why he loves Ubuntu and why so many others prefer it over other distros. We use Fedora Core for our servers at work but personally I'd rather see ubuntu running on those servers. I use it for my workstation, for managing servers and for coding.

I keep hearing Ubuntu described as merely a noob’s distro lately. However, Ubuntu has around 50% of the Linux desktop market share, give or take, but Linux as a whole has only gained a tenth of a percent or so since Ubuntu’s introduction. So either noobs adopted Ubuntu in such numbers that half of Linux veterans switched to Windows in protest, or there are quite a few veterans out there running Ubuntu, but who apparently don’t think it’s cool to admit it.
