=== Ubuntu unveils tablet experience with multi-tasking ===
This week Canonical announced the availability of an SDK for Ubuntu
for tablets. Ubuntu for tablets provides manufacturers with an
alternative to Android that can be managed with the same tools as
Ubuntu server or desktop. Ubuntu for tablets is an elegant,
non-fragmented solution that provides a secure multi-user experience.

=== Ubuntu Pros and Cons ===
Bruce Byfield of Datamation looks at the pros and cons as he sees them
of Ubuntu.
Cons include:
1. Increasing Insularity of Development
2. The Commercial Controlling the Community
3. Designing for Mobile Devices
4. Forgotten Roots
5. Ads on the desktop
6. Privacy and Security Issues
7. Introducing Proprietary Elements
Pros include:
1. Simplified Installation
2. An Emphasis on Localization
3. Launchpad
4. Regular Release Cycles
5. Encrypted Home Directories
6. Community Building
7. Concern About Usability
"But instead of praising or criticizing Ubuntu and Canonical
wholeheartedly, it seems more reasonable to approach them without
expectations, judging them by their actions rather than their
marketing or their past," said Byfield about his thoughts on finding
balance.
http://www.datamation.com/open-source/ubuntu-pros-and-cons-1.html
=== Why More People Are Choosing Ubuntu ===
Matt Hartley of Datamation writes, "In this article, we'll explore why
Ubuntu is succeeding, why some folks dislike Ubuntu and how this
affects (or doesn't affect) other Linux distributions." The areas he
explores include learning for others, desktop environments and general
usability, Unity and the Dash controversy, and the various Ubuntu
derivatives.
Hartley notes in his final thoughts, "And despite the fact that
sometimes Ubuntu's development cycle may frustrate me, the core Ubuntu
experience has been very good to me."

=== Ubuntu unveils tablet experience with multi-tasking ===
This week Canonical announced the availability of an SDK for Ubuntu
for tablets. Ubuntu for tablets provides manufacturers with an
alternative to Android that can be managed with the same tools as
Ubuntu server or desktop. Ubuntu for tablets is an elegant,
non-fragmented solution that provides a secure multi-user experience.

Taking Ubuntu Touch Developer Preview to new levels ===

Developer Preview which can be used in the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4,

=== Ubuntu Pros and Cons ===
Bruce Byfield of Datamation looks at the pros and cons as he sees them
of Ubuntu.
Cons include:
1. Increasing Insularity of Development
2. The Commercial Controlling the Community
3. Designing for Mobile Devices
4. Forgotten Roots
5. Ads on the desktop
6. Privacy and Security Issues
7. Introducing Proprietary Elements
Pros include:
1. Simplified Installation
2. An Emphasis on Localization
3. Launchpad
4. Regular Release Cycles
5. Encrypted Home Directories
6. Community Building
7. Concern About Usability
"But instead of praising or criticizing Ubuntu and Canonical
wholeheartedly, it seems more reasonable to approach them without
expectations, judging them by their actions rather than their
marketing or their past," said Byfield about his thoughts on finding
balance.

=== Why More People Are Choosing Ubuntu ===
Matt Hartley of Datamation writes, "In this article, we'll explore why
Ubuntu is succeeding, why some folks dislike Ubuntu and how this
affects (or doesn't affect) other Linux distributions." The areas he
explores include learning for others, desktop environments and general
usability, Unity and the Dash controversy, and the various Ubuntu
derivatives.
Hartley notes in his final thoughts, "And despite the fact that
sometimes Ubuntu's development cycle may frustrate me, the core Ubuntu
experience has been very good to me."
