Update: This is depreciated, kept for reference. Please read the new, relevant article on GNOME Studio.
Disclosure: I install Ubuntu Studio on Xubuntu:
sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-photography ubuntustudio-publishing linux-lowlatency ubuntustudio-video ubuntustudio-menu ubuntustudio-desktop
As a web developer, blogger, musician, podcaster, brand manager, graphic designer, copywriter, and author, I need a lot of stuff.
I need to look under the hood, but I want to close the hood. I need the engine to keep working and I need it to run slick and quick.
That pretty much eliminates Mac and Windows, not to mention Apple no longer has Steve… and Windows, well… you know. (On the same machine, two-finger scrolling doesn’t work in Win 8.1, while it does on Xubuntu/Kubuntu. #synapticNoUpdate)
Alternative Considerations
