Ubuntu Linux

Well, after few days configuring my new home server with Ubuntu Linux, it's a time to... give it up!
Why?


Pro:

Fast! <- Talk about desktop performance, Ubuntu is really good in term of efficiency.

Innovative installation <- well, if u say Windows XP is easy, then Ubuntu is for your grand pa, just put the cd in and that's it.

Package management system <- apt do EVERYTHING for you with some clicks! Better than FreeBSD's port system; no need to buy "lo faan" or bit torrent.


Con:

Not as solid as many other system. <- I expect better security by default.

No "root" <- he has no "root"!! I don't like it!



Some final words, Ubuntu is a good OS, and there are spaces to improve...
But what I am looking for is a rock solid *nix, so far, Ubuntu can only use as a desktop for me.

Next, I am going to try Novell openSUSE.
