Meet Ubuntu Linux 12.10 'Quantal Quetzal': Pictures

With the Ubuntu Linux 12.10 “Quantal Quetzal” release launched in October, Ubuntu integrates the desktop and the online world, enabling users to access content and applications easily, whether they exist locally or online.

Quantal Quetzal is also notable for the bold challenge with which it launched: “Avoid the pain of Windows 8” was its initial slogan, making plain Canonical's desire to take on Microsoft's competing operating system.

There's no denying Ubuntu Linux has become an increasingly compelling alternative over the years. Want to see more? Read on, then, for a peek at what this free and open source challenger delivers.
