Windows 10 versus Linux
================================================================================

Windows 10 seemed to dominate the headlines today, even in many Linux circles. Leading the pack is Brian Fagioli at betanews.com saying Windows 10 is ringing the death knell for Linux desktops. Microsoft announced today that Windows 10 will be free for loyal Windows users and Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols said it's the newest Open Source company. Then Matt Hartley compares Windows 10 to Ubuntu and Jesse Smith reviews Windows 10 from a Linux user's perspective.
**Windows 10** was the talk around water coolers today with Microsoft's [announcement][1] that it would be free for Windows 7 and up users. Here in Linuxland, that didn't go unnoticed. Brian Fagioli at betanews.com, a self-proclaimed Linux fan, said today, "Windows 10 closes the door entirely. The year of the Linux desktop will never happen. Rest in peace." [Fagioli explained][2] that Microsoft listened to user complaints and not only addressed them but improved way beyond that. He said Linux missed the boat by failing to capitalize on the Windows 8 unpopularity and ultimate failure. Then he concluded that we on the fringe must accept our "shattered dreams" thanks to Windows 10.
**H**owever, Jesse Smith, of Distrowatch.com fame, said Microsoft isn't making it easy to find the download, but it is possible and he did it. The installer was simple enough except for the partitioner, which was quite limited and almost scary. After finally getting into Windows 10, Smith said the layout was "sparce" without a lot of the distractions folks hated about 7. The menu is back and the start screen is gone. A new package manager looks a lot like Ubuntu's and Android's according to Smith, but requires an online Microsoft account to use. [Smith concludes][3] in part, "Windows 10 feels like a beta for an early version of Android, a consumer operating system that is designed to be on-line all the time. It does not feel like an operating system I would use to get work done."
**S**mith's [full article][4] compares Windows 10 to Linux quite a bit, but Matt Hartley today posted an actual Windows 10 vs Linux report. [He said][5] both installers were straightforward and easy Windows still doesn't dual boot easily and Windows provides encryption by default but Ubuntu offers it as an option. At the desktop Hartley said Windows 10 "is struggling to let go of its Windows 8 roots." He thought the Windows Store looks more polished than Ubuntu's but didn't really like the "tile everything" approach to newly installed apps. In conclusion, Hartley said, "The first issue is that it's going to be a free upgrade for a lot of Windows users. This means the barrier to entry and upgrade is largely removed. Second, it seems this time Microsoft has really buckled down on listening to what their users want."
**S**teven J. Vaughan-Nichols today said that Microsoft is the newest Open Source company; not because it's going to be releasing Windows 10 as a free upgrade but because Microsoft is changing itself from a software company to a software as a service company. And, according to Vaughan-Nichols, Microsoft needs Open Source to do it. They've been working on it for years beginning with Novell/SUSE. Not only that, they've been releasing software as Open Source as well (whatever the motives). [Vaughan-Nichols concluded][6], "Most people won't see it, but Microsoft -- yes Microsoft -- has become an open-source company."

Windows 10 VS Linux
================================================================================

如今Windows 10好像占据了绝大部分头条甚至在一些Linux圈里也是一样。最突出的是betanews.com的Brian Fagioli说Windows 10已经为Linux桌面系统敲响了丧钟Microsoft如今宣布将为忠实的Windows用户免费提供windows 10Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols说这是一个最新的开源公司然后Matt Hartley比较了Windows 10和UbuntuJesse Smith发表了从Linux用户角度对Windows 10的评估。
**Windows 10**在Microsoft[声明][1]说将免费提供给Windows 7及以上用户时成为如今闲聊的热门话题。在Linuxland这里也没有被忽视。betanews.com的Brian Fagioli一个自封的Linux粉丝如今这样说“Windows 10把门彻底关上了。Linux桌面元年将永远不会到来。安息吧。”[Fagioli解释][2]说Microsoft倾听了用户的抱怨而且并不只是记录一下而是解决的更好。他说Linux错失了由Windows 8不受欢迎以及巨大失败带来的积累机会。然后他总结拜Windows 10所赐处于边缘地带的我们只能接受一个“破碎的梦”。
**不**过来自闻名的Distrowatch.com的Jesse Smith说Microsoft并没有提供一个很明显的下载方式不过确实可行而且他也升级了。安装程序非常简单除了分区功能很有限甚至有点吓人。在最终启动进入Windows 10后Smith说界面布局很“松散”没有Win7里被很多人讨厌的大量分散注意的元素开始菜单又回来了取消了欢迎屏幕。据Smith所说还有一个和Ubuntu以及Android很类似的新的包管理程序不过需要Microsoft在线账户才可以使用。[Smith的总结][3]里有这样一条“感觉Windows 10像是Android的早期beta版本一个设计成时刻保持在线的消费者操作系统。而不像是一个我能用来完成工作的操作系统。”
**S**mith的[完整文章][4]里比较了Windows 10和Linux的大量细节不过Matt Hartley发表了一个实在的Windows 10 vs Linux的报告。[他说][5]两者的安装程序都很直观和简单Windows的双启动仍然没那么容易Windows默认提供了加密而Ubuntu只提供了配置选项。在桌面上Hartley说Windows 10“纠结地丢弃了它Windows 8的根。”他觉得Windows 10的Windows商店比Ubuntu的漂亮很多但是实在不喜欢通过“一切都是卡片”的方式来查看新安装的应用。Hartley这样总结“首先是它将为大量Windows用户提供免费升级。这意味着大大降低了进入和升级门槛。第二这次看起来Microsoft真的在全力以赴地倾听他们用户的需求了。”
**S**teven J. Vaughan-Nichols如今声称Microsoft是最新的开源公司不仅因为它将放出Windows 10的免费升级而且Microsoft正在从一个软件公司转型为一个软件服务公司。然后据Vaughan-Nichols所说Microsoft需要开源来完成这次转型。从Novell/SUSE开始他们已经在这一块工作好多年了。不仅如此他们也发布过开源软件不管什么目的。[Vaughan-Nichols总结][6]“很多人都没注意到但是Microsoft -- 就是那个Microsoft -- 已经成为一家开源公司。”
