Ubuntu Linux Essential Applications - The BEST apps for a Dapper Install.
diveintomark.org — Now that I ’ve completed my move to Linux (sorry Mac fanboys, the install was flawless and everything worked out of the box), someone emailed me to suggest that I update my essential software list. So here you go.
- 129 diggs

- nTensify, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5The author of that "essential list" couldn't be any more flamebative, even though some of his software picks are actually quite solid.
- eltejano, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I read nTensify's comments and had to go check out the list for myself. I think the flamebait may work in his favor (for now) . . . at least it made me read the whole list.

at least he can admit it!- bacirriu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I just laughed at that
- KotZer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I'm bored of topics that are getting digged just because they have the word 'ubuntu' in them
- TOTALineptitude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+21. "Digged" isn't a word.
2. If you want to take the plunge and install Ubuntu, this list may be extremely helpful. - bacirriu, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Hint: Don't think, just jump on the ubuntu bandwagon.
- jameshales, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Ubuntu is pretty cool. The default theme is the ugliest I've ever seen, and I really prefer to have the latest releases of some software, but other than that Ubuntu is an excellent, polished system that is going to go places if it keeps this up.
- TOTALineptitude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+21. "Digged" isn't a word.
- MoClippa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm a Suse user, but I dugg it because I found a couple of useful things in there.
- rafaelmagu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Dugg for the 'can't install Debian' part. Try to install Debian on an old Cobalt Qube2.
