Me encanta que consuma mucho menos recursos que otros sistemas operativos. Eso da mucha oportunidad de revivir viejos portátiles o comprar ordenadores más económicos Para mi que no soy un prodigio en informática Ubuntu es una distro muy sencilla de usar. Sí se usa para labores de ofimática y navegar por internet, la diferencia con Windows no es tan abismal. Pros No hay virusConsume menos recuros en el portátil Cons Creo que para personas con conocimientos muy limitados en computación, no es tan sencillo hacerl el cambio a Ubuntu. Yo uso Ubunto en un pendrive y no sé sí es por eso pero me suele dar inconveniente con el wifi. Parece que no siempre reconoce la trajeta de red. Y revisando tutoriales creo que no soy el único.
