Nostalgia


Maybe you remember old application of Ubuntu 12.04 or 11.02 but what if we use this systems for the daily living will they work ... let's find it out . 

 Apps

 In apps you got the old Ubuntu Software Store (USS) what it's very good cause you find some basic stuff for programming , gaming, audio editing and some other stuff .  But new applications like Spotify will be harder to install but thanks to the internet there are tutorials about it or updating Chrome or Chromium is a real "pain in the ass"  , but if you're working on basic stuff or it's a guest computer it's going to be ok . 

Updates 

 Well updates don't have the best face of this but cause it's an old OS it will always try to give the latest version of everything it will be constantly sending you massages about "update the computer"  "ubuntu 18.01 is ready to install" . The best thing it's that thanks that it's an open source system you can deactivate the notification or updates. 

Go and find yourself the other amazing thing that the oldies ubuntu has for you and if you are up for the challenge here is the link :
