How to Test Ubuntu 13.04 Without Downloading It

Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...


Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) has been released, but not everyone may be willing to give it a go. There’s a very simple solution to see firsthand how the system looks, without having to install or even download it.

When a new operating system is released, users scramble to install and test it. Canonical has figured out a way to let the user experience the operating system, without forcing anyone to download it.

This is not a new feature, but it should be promoted a lot more. On the official Ubuntu website, there’s a button called “Take a Tour of Ubuntu.” Despite what some people might think, that is not a link to the features of Ubuntu.

The website actually loads a mockup of Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) and it’s pretty convincing. They even got Unity working.

Users don’t need a large bandwidth for the internet connection and the presentation is really accurate. Check out the official Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) tour on Ubuntu.com.
