I like Ubuntu Server. I really like apt-get, because I don't have to do any work at all to install stuff. It's a piece of cake. Unfortunately, sometimes installing using apt-get doesn't work, or maybe the version of the software I need on the Ubuntu repository isn't the latest and greatest. In such cases, there's only one option left: installing from source. I recently had the opportunity to install the latest version of ImageMagick on an Ubuntu server, and it was a lot easier than I thought it would be!
