Description: Linux Ubuntu 24.04, live media with installer, on a 8Gb USB thumb drive. An enterprise grade solution for the everyday desktop - Cannonical's flagship product, Ubuntu, has been the go-to choice for getting new users familiar with desktop Linux since its inception. It offers simple controls and concise choices, which make it easy to find the Linux equivalents to expectations developed from a Windows or an Apple or a ChromeOS background. The default desktop is a pragmatic design, made to ease a user into the Gnome environment for professional use. Unlike the mainline Gnome build; Ubuntu's version lets you change it into a more familiar, more comfortable experience - similar to MacOS. It's conveniently connectable to all the big tech services like Google and Facebook, so you can get notifications and use services without opening a browser. Unlike some account managers - if you don't use it, it won't tell anyone! Most apps, including the web browser, are installed as "snaps" - which containerize each process, making them more secure than a traditional application. The file manager, nautilus, allows common-sense file searching; by type, name, or even the content of files and folders. Any way you can think to search, nautilus can do. A simplified task bar, with apps hand picked for your convenience, holds what you will immediately need. In addition, there is a full-screen menu that shows every application installed on the machine - so you can easily discover the power Ubuntu has to offer you. Ubuntu's Gnome environment also offers advanced features common amongst operating systems with corporate backing, which are typically missing from Linux - such as desktop wide color management. Software is the most confusing part of Linux, and Ubuntu makes it easy to understand with its App Center utility. App Center pools together Cannonical's Aptitude with Snapcraft, and the industry standard Flathub - and presents them to you in a user-friendly way. Unlike a traditional app store, all software from App Center, Aptitude, Snapcraft, and Flathub are completely free of charge, and vetted by security and quality control teams at Cannonical and Flathub. Not sure if you'll like it? The image provided on the USB2.0 is a live media. This means that when you boot into it, it will let you use its desktop without ever touching your hard drive! Once you've made your decision, keep the USB drive safe. Live media are extremely powerful for recovery and backup - and having one is handy, even if you decide not to install from it! All screenshots were taken of a virtual machine installed under my personal Fedora 40 Linux laptop. Changes were made using the settings menu only, and the Ubuntu 24.04 system used was not modified in any way.
