Benchmarks For Ubuntu vs. OpenSolaris vs. FreeBSD 131
Ashmash writes "After their Mac OS X versus Ubuntu benchmarks earlier this month, Phoronix.com has now carried out a performance comparison between Ubuntu 8.10, OpenSolaris 2008.11 and FreeBSD 7.1. They used a dual quad-core workstation with the Phoronix Test Suite to run primarily Java, disk, and computational benchmarks. The 64-bit build of Ubuntu 8.10 was the fastest overall, but FreeBSD and OpenSolaris were first in other areas."

thats not how it works.
ubuntu software runs on the windows that pcs run on and so you need to remove the ubuntu layer to get to the normal windows again.
when you uninstall ubuntu it puts the desktop colours back to the normal windows ones so you can run your programs again. though you need to reinstall some programs still.
if windows was not also installed there is no way to run ubuntu as you still need to move the mouse.
