The Ubuntu Linux distribution has been spotted once again; this time running on a promotional booth. This is yet another sighting of the very useful and powerful desktop OS that is revolutionizing computing all over the world. It is clear that this distribution will be the most popular one yet. Despite the controversy over the Amazon search integration and the Unity desktop. You can just install the MATE respin if you wish to have something different on the desktop. Read about the MATE respin of Ubuntu in this posting: http://www.securitronlinux.com/bejiitaswrath/ubuntu-mate-remix-does-exist-after-all-this-is-a-good-rival-to-the-linux-mint-14-distribution/. And you may also install Gnome Shell or KDE if you wish to run a different desktop environment. Linux on the desktop is becoming a good contender against Windows, with less viruses and malware than Windows and Macintosh OSX computers. And if you use the MATE desktop; there are many lovely GTK themes for that desktop, and you can make it look rather like Windows if you wish.
