One of the many advantages of Ubuntu to old codgers like me and those of us who depend on our computer for passing the time is the vast range of free software and applications available to be tried and tested. Mostly these are easy to install and uninstall and generally work with the hardware we have. Sometimes, like Mythtv for example, it is necessary to get a new bit of hardware but the cost of such is relatively minimal. I get tremendous pleasure from applications such as the Gimp, the many sound and video applications and if I want to use something which requires Widows then I will see if it will work in Crossover Office. (Note, Crossover is not free but what you pay goes to help the developers of Wine). Come on Ubuntu users, let's hear of all the things you like to use and what gives you pleasure. Stop lurking and come out. Norman Dear Norman, Great to hear how you are enjoying Ubuntu- Gimp suddenly jumped up the other day when I was opening a photo being sent by email....haven't had a chance to play....but your email has made me want to! Thanks for being so cheerful and encouraging!
