GetHOST functions, that there was an effective fix for the bug in May

2013 but long-term Linux distros such as Ubuntu 12.04 are still exposed

to the bug.

shift to running more mission-critical programs on the cloud."

== In The Blogosphere ==

 

=== Windows vs Linux: The 2015 Version ===

 

Matt Hartley of Datamation compares the installation processes of

Windows 10 and Ubuntu, noting that both systems have fairly

straightforward installers but if you wish to install both OSes on the

same machine Windows must be installed first. He looks at the the

desktops, privacy, security and hardware support, and in his conclusion

says: "Ubuntu and other distros are ready for the desktop now."

Broadwell ===

 

Michael Larabel of Phoronix gives us the results of some performance

tests he made on Intel Broadwell hardware which reflect the differences

between Ubuntu 14.10 and the current daily build of Ubuntu 15.04. In his

conclusion he says: "For right now the main reason to upgrade to Ubuntu

15.04 as an Intel Broadwell owner would be for the faster OpenGL

graphics performance."

Michael Larabel of Phoronix compares the performance of Ubuntu 14.10 and

15.04 with Fedora 21 on a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon. In his conclusion

he says: "Fedora 21 ran faster than Ubuntu in some graphics tests thanks

to it already having a newer Mesa version and the shipping of new kernel

versions as stable release updates. "
