Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop
Ubuntu 9.10桌面
Karmic Koala's desktop should be familiar to Windows users. Right-click menu shortcuts and personalizing the desktop features are similar to Windows 7. The desktop still isn't as "glitzy" as Windows 7, but users can get the eye candy of Windows 7 with a fast graphics card and can choose the "Extra" settings in Ubuntu 9.10's "Appearance Preferences."
Karmic Koala的桌面对Windows用户来说应该不会陌生。右键菜单里的快捷方式和个性化桌面里的特性与Windows7类似。也许不如Windows 7 炫目，但是拥有快速显卡的用户可以找到象Windows 7一样的“眼睛糖果”：在Ubuntu 9.10的“应用程序设置”里选择“增强“。
Ubuntu's Command Line Interface
Ubuntu的命令行界面
Experienced Linux users are familiar with the command line. One can argue that it's Windows that is the one getting up to speed with the power of the command line, especially with Server 2008's Power Shell. Here is the Terminal screen in Ubuntu 9.10, which provides a robust environment for executing scripts and commands.
有经验的Linux用户对命令行很熟悉。有人会说Windows正在加强自己的命令行界面，特别是Server 2008的Power Shell。上图是Ubuntu 9.10的终端屏幕，它为运行脚本和命令提供了一个健壮的环境。
E-mail And Calendaring
E-mail与日程管理
Ubuntu 9.10 comes with an e-mail and calendaring client with features that are available only in Outlook and not in Outlook Express. Evolution mail client and calendar can be used to sync up IMAP and SMTP e-mail accounts. Users can import vCards, .csv, vCalendar and other messaging file formats into Evolution.
Ubuntu 9.10自带一个e-mail和日程管理的客户端，拥有Outlook的功能且强于Outlook Express。Evolution邮件客户端和日程管理软件可以用于与IMAP和SMTP类型的e-mail账户进行同步。用户可以导入vCards，.csv文件，vCalendar以及其他格式的信息文件。
Web Browser
网络浏览器
No surprise here. Ubuntu's answer to Windows 7's Internet Explorer is Firefox version 3.5.3.
这儿没什么让人吃惊的东西。Ubuntu用来应战Windows 7 Internet Exploer浏览器的是Firefox version 3.5.3。
Productivity
生产力
A user would have to have a locally installed full version of Microsoft Office to get the same feature set provided by Openoffice.org's Impress, Writer and Spreadsheet, all of which are installed by default with Ubuntu 9.10.
使用Microsoft Office的用户，可以得到由Openoffice.org幻灯片、字处理和电子表格提供的相同功能，所有这些由Ubuntu 9.10默认提供。
Ubuntu's 'App Store'
Ubuntu 的 'App Store'
Perhaps more of a feature associated with Apple than Windows, Ubuntu 9.10 replaces the Add/Remove feature in the Applications menu with the more contemporary Ubuntu Software Center, with the big exception being that the software is free.
也许比Apple超越Windows的那个特性还要好，Ubuntu 9.10把应用程序里的“添加／删除“功能换成了更具现代感的“软件中心”，但是最大的不同是里面的软件是免费的。
System Testing
系统测试
Microsoft beefed up system problem detection and remediation in Windows 7 with the Troubleshooting feature in the Control Panel. Ubuntu has its own troubleshooter in the form of "System Testing." This utility tests a variety of components such as audio and video for problems and suggests configuration changes to optimize performance.
微软在控制面板里提供了Troubleshooting功能，以加强对系统问题的检测和纠正。Ubuntu有它自己的troubleshooter，名字叫“系统测试”。此工具对诸如声卡、显卡之类的大量硬件进行测试，找出问题并提出配置建议，以增强系统的性能。
System Monitor
系统监视器
System Monitor is Ubuntu's counterpart to Windows' Performance Monitor. As in Performance Monitor, System Monitor allows users to track processes and system resources such as CPU usage and network traffic.
系统监视器是Ubuntu中对应Windows性能监视器的软件。就象Win的性能监视那样，系统监视器允许用户跟踪进程和系统资源，如CPU的占用情况、网络流量情况。
Network Tools
网络工具
Ubuntu 9.10 comes with a native Network Tools client that gives users a bit more information about network status than is available within the Windows 7 GUI alone, such as Port Scans.
Ubuntu 9.10 自带一个本地的网络工具客户端，它向用户提供了比Windows 7稍多的网络状态信息，比如Port Scans。
Terminal Services
终端服务
Ubuntu 9.10 has both a Terminal Services client and Remote Desktop. Here, we are using Terminal Services to remotely and effortlessly connect to a Windows Server 2008 machine.
