Pwn 2 Own- Ubuntu Laptop claims victory as Vista falls
“7:30pm PST Update - Vista Laptop was Won!: Congratulations to the team of Shane Macaulay and Derek Callaway (both from Security Objectives) and Alexander Sotirov! - they have just won the Fujitsu U810 laptop running Vista Ultimate SP1 after it was installed with the latest version of Adobe Flash” Only Ubuntu was left standing!
I dual boot ubuntu and Vista, mainly to just have fun in Linux just because I can (it is great having free software, you use it just because you can ;)) but honestly, I mostly use Vista. I like that when I’m done in Microsoft Math or Excel, I can instantly start up COD 4 and I’m off to have some fun. Windows is hard to beat, I do not think anyone can claim victory over windows until other OSes gain support. You know Microsoft is going to make Windows 7 “better” than Vista, so I do not see that happening anytime soon. If that isn’t the case though, Microsoft should start to feel some hurt.
