One of the advantages we are told of Ubuntu is that we don't have to wait on the long Debian development cycle. What Ubuntu lacks is a good 64bit version.

But what happens when you are on the road with no internet connection? Windows beat Linux on this.īefore I get modded down for what some will call trolls, I will stop here but I agree that Ubuntu and Linux still have a long long way to impress folks like me. Assumptions are made that everyone can go online and get the neccessary help. Some have even told me it does not exist. Even for sites that offer RealPlayer streams, GNOME's RealPlayer, even if installed cannot grab the stream by default! Multimedia on the web is still a big hassle. It is also incredibly ugly for me.why? In KDE, this is possible but the fonts and general look are very ugly and are already starting to look ancient. What still bothers me is the fact that in Ubuntu's GNOME file selector interface, I cannot simply paste a URL and have the program open the referenced document. For one, package management seems to be very much improved. I will however give credit where it is due. While the whole world seems to be very impressed with Ubuntu and its derivatives, I am still to be impressed after having tried it for about three weeks. So it doesn't really say whether it is the most commonly used distribution, merely that it gets the most clicks to its page within distrowatch. This records one hit, and then no other hits are recorded for that IP for the rest of the day. yeah, so what it actually means is that, because it's well known and at the top of the list, Ubuntu is usually the first page clicked. Only one hit per IP address per day is counted."
The counters are no longer displayed on the individual distributions pages, but all visits (on the main site, as well as on mirrors) are logged. This was prompted by a continuous abuse of the counters by a handful of undisciplined individuals who had confused DistroWatch with a voting station.
In May 2004 the site switched from publicly viewable third-party counters to internal counters. Later the pages were transformed into plain text files with PHP generating all the HTML code, but the original counter remained unchanged. Originally, each distribution-specific page was pure HTML with a third-party counter at the bottom to monitor interest of visitors. "The Page Hit Ranking statistics have attracted plenty of attention and feedback. Isn't page rank on distrowatch based on clicks to the various distros pages on that site, rather than what distro you're actually using?
