Come back when you've actually TRIED Ubuntu. Ubuntu 12.04 is easily one of the most functional and intuitive operating systems I've tried.

Does anyone know if it's possible to install linux on a fake iphone? I mean, I know it's possible, the problem is how. A friend of mine's father bought a fake iphone for 50€. Needless to say it's completely useless and it's in korean. The hardware, however, is perfectly fine so I wanted to install linux on it.
So, how do I do it? It's impossible to navigate in that thing, I would need to format it and install linux by connecting it to the pc somehow.

Valve just confirmed the Linux port officially!

You can play most games on linux by using wine. And even if steam games are being ported to linux you're still better off using wine in order to play when they're released.
Why?
Running games natively is way better than using WINE. If the code is properly converted that is..
Running programs natively gives better performance and means that it'll always work without you having to tinker with it (like you often have to with WINE).

Well, in many ways Linux already outdoes windows.
It's obviously very lacking in the software department compared to windows, but overall I consider Linux to be a better PLATFORM for programs.
Windows is doing a lot of good things for the tablet market with 8 though, but I'm pretty sure Metro won't fit the desktop environment very well..
Linux needs to get 9001% more user friendly
