Opinion may differ on this one, but I find it a little bit more useful despite being an open source application. I mean, we have seen so many useful open source programs that stand shoulder-shoulder with some shareware. Not that Kubuntu is entirely perfect and without faults, the fact that it uses the solid base of Ubuntu makes it good enough for me.

Kubuntu is free and is user-friendly system that is based on the KDE’s desktop software and also on the very popular Ubuntu operating system just like I already mentioned above. The good thing about Kubuntu is that anyone can use it because it is not technical at all. It is designed for people like: notebook owners; small-businesses; educational institutions and others.

Like I said during my opening paragraph, opinion differs and I personally like this program, and the fact that it is still in Beta stage makes room for improvements.
