I installed Ubuntu Server instead of Ubuntu Desktop because I wanted to run a lightweight Linux environment, which should save laptop resources. I intend to run my application in a Linux environment, so instead of learning the intricacies of porting my code and makefile to Mac OS X, I decided to install a local Ubuntu Server virtual machine (VM) on my MacBook. For example, right now I”m trying to develop a Boost Python module, and I am having trouble compiling it on OS X. While the OS X experience is wonderful, application development can be frustrating.
It”s my personal laptop, so I use it for everything – browsing, e-mail, and programming. My laptop is a late 2011 MacBook Pro running OS X 10.9 Mavericks. Categories: Download Install Ssh Server Mac
