The software is stellar. It is my favorite web server platform, period. It’s fast. It’s reliable. It blows all other Linux distros out of the water for personal style web serving and desktop Linux use. Well, in my opinion.

The LAMP server has almost everything you need ready to go from the start. Getting a Wiki or WordPress blog running out of the box is a piece of cake. No, easier than cake. It’s like breathing. Yes. Serving pages with Ubuntu is like breathing.

The community support is excellent. If I have a problem with Ubuntu, all I have to do is type, even vaguely, a 5 word description of my problem or even just the task I want to accomplish, and someone out there has had the same problem and had it fixed by a Linux or Ubuntu guru.

I Ubuntu.
