From the point of thought of Ubuntu9.10

Ubuntu was installed this afternoon. The overall progress of Ubuntu is very great, and the ease of use is getting better and better. It is closer and closer to junior users. This is worthy of recognition. And the interface is very beautiful. But if you want to carefully optimize and adjust it, you will find that it is still inseparable from Unix. the Linux culture is a completely different culture from Windows, the differences between the two are simply different concepts. (For more information about Unix culture, see the "Unix programming art" book.

I installed Ubuntu 9.10 this afternoon. The overall improvement of Ubuntu is very great, and the ease of use is getting better and better. It is getting closer and closer to junior users. This is worthy of recognition. And the interface is very beautiful.

But if you want to carefully optimize and adjust it, you will find that it is still inseparable from Unix. the Linux culture is a completely different culture from Windows, the differences between the two are simply different concepts (for more Unix culture books, read the "Unix programming art" book ). Therefore, in essence, Ubuntu still needs to master a lot of commands, learn to rewrite a lot of configurations, learn to read the wiki, read manual, and find a solution on google. Of course, this is natural for geek who love Linux and Unix. * Nix's design philosophy is not to take users first, but to make more effective use of resources. This philosophy has its background, as early as the early stage of the electronic computer, the enterprise-level or more advanced industrial-level mainframe and middleware have been set up, the user's operation experience has never been put in the first consideration, instead, we put how to use resources more efficiently first. In this case, Unix was born, and Linux should be a Unix derivative, so its soul is "efficient", rather than "Easy to use ".

In contrast, for Windows and OS X systems, the development of application software is based on ease of use, or at least as important as efficiency, this is also why the GUI is so close to common consumer users in these two systems. It is not hard to find that Windows and OS X become more and more popular with the increasing hardware performance.

That is to say, for the general consumer market, the dominance of Windows and OS X is inevitable. * Nix's position is not so easy to shake for enterprise applications and applications that require extremely high system performance.
