Very cool comparison of Vista Aero and Ubuntu. If you really think that this is just another Beryl propaganda, you need to check this video. (My personal favourite comes at 3 min 11 sec).

Now watch this video and and tell whether Windows could ever come closer to this in the next 10 years comparing the sleekness and the memory consumption. Beryl comfortably runs on 512 MB memory and a decent processor. Here is a feedback by one of the bloggers.
“I’ve got Beryl running very nicely on a P3 800 with 512MB of RAM and a GeForce 6200 card. The only thing that’s slow is resize. Everything else is pretty snappy.”
Wanna try Ubuntu?
You can either order your Gnome version of ubuntu at https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
or the KDE version of Ubuntu (I just love this) at https://shipit.kubuntu.org/
What you can order is Kubuntu/Ubuntu Dapper Drake 6.06 which is 6 months old. My personal advise is to download the latest version Kubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10 at http://www.kubuntu.org/download.php. Stable, no spyware, no viruses, runs comfortably on machines suffering from “low memory” disease.
Ubuntu has its new version released every 6 months. Next comes in April is Fiesty Fawn. You can also download an Alpha release of it.
