Is Ubuntu right for U??

Tonight I attended the Ubuntu workshop at It-ology with +Jim Salter and although I have been exposed to open source technology before I must say I was pleased with the workshop.  I think that there are those that may be a little skeptical about open source either due to security concerns in a professional capacity or we chose to stick to system environments we are accustomed to.  Given Jim's impeccable reputation in the technology community it would be easy to assume that tonight's workshop would be above the heads of those who are not quite familiar with the open source world, but this was clearly not the case tonight.  Whether you are a fan of Apple or Windows it cannot hurt to familiarize yourself with the options that open source can bring.  Ubuntu, for instance, is easy to download and for those who are tentative about trying new things it has many of the features that you would find in Windows 7.  I really liked Jim's delivery tonight and I highly recommend that people get exposed to open source because it is here to stay.  Lastly, above all, it is absolutely free to test drive!!!!
