What is the most user-friendly Linux distribution?

To install Linux, but you are unsure which distribution to choose, we recommend Ubuntu.

Reasons to choose Ubuntu

• Many Linux users prefer to dual-boot Linux with Windows. If you already have Windows installed, Ubuntu installer detects this, and give you the option to install so they run happily side by side. After that, every time you boot up you can choose whether you want to use Linux or Windows. You can even access your Windows files from within Ubuntu.
• It's well-documented. Canonical, the maker of Ubuntu, has spent a lot of time and energy answering questions for new users and fully explaining resolutions to almost every common issue at askubuntu.com.
• It's straightforward to update the software. Ubuntu's upgrade system, which uses the aptitude software package manager, is fast, reliable, and friendly to new users.
• It's well supported. If you are looking for any given piece of Linux software, you can bet that it's already available as a compiled binary that's compatible with Ubuntu.
