You use Ubuntu and don't know whether you have apt, or what it is? That is actually a bit amazing. Apt is the front-end to dpkg, which is the standard Debian package management system. These are what are used to install deb files, which are the binary packages used on Debian and Debian based systems like Ubuntu.

YOU are the reason more folks aren't running Linux.

Wow, that seems harsh. Yes, I am shocked that the poster who was using Ubuntu did not know what apt is, but that doesn't mean I was mocking them or anything. I merely explained what it was.
