What you can't do with Ubuntu:
REAL WORK
The reasons that Ubuntu is a big pile of **** are twofold:
1. When *anything* in Ubuntu needs updating or patching, it all comes
crashing down when the little orange star appears on the screen
and no patches are available. It's a known fact that anti virus apps and
anti malware apps can only deal with nasties that are known, not the new
ones. Hence, it is very important to be updated or patched and not just
the operating system but everything that is installed on the computer.
Ubuntu has no central updating source and the user has to be checking
constantly for updates to their programs or face the possibility of
being compromised.
2. In Windows, when anything wants to install, you have to key in your
password. With Ubuntu, you have to click on "OK" or nothing at all as
is evidenced by drive by malware. Unlike Linux, the Windows kernel is
not intertwined with a browser like Ubuntu is with Mozilla
and the kernel is kept away and protected from the user account.
