Reviews - Ubuntu Studio
A weakness in multimedia production (or at least the perception of) has long been the Achilles’ heel of Linux. Yes, major Hollywood productions use Linux and there are a smattering of graphics and audio programs, but there has never been a comprehensive and cohesive collection of media creation tools for the average user—until now. Ubuntu Studio is an ambitious attempt to bring Linux multimedia creation to the mainstream, and the results are surprisingly good.
First Look
Ubuntu Studio can be downloaded as a DVD image and installed with minimal fuss. Very intuitive screens will guide you along the way. And being based on Ubuntu, most hardware will be detected easily with minimal conflict. A cool and dark unified theme gives Ubuntu Studio a rather 'pro' look, so you're immediately in a juiced-up creative mood once you boot up. There doesn't appear to be a live CD option, so you have to bite the bullet and put the thing onto your harddrive; it's only about 3 or 4 GB so it shouldn't be too much of a space-hog for most systems.
