Ubuntu - Linux for human beings[edit]
Ubuntu is a Linux distribution based on Debian GNU/Linux with gnome or KDE desktop. Ubuntu is the only distribution (i know of) that even sends out free CDs via snail mail.

Ubuntu is also a South African ethic focusing on people's allegiances and relations with each other. The word comes from the Zulu and Xhosa languages. A rough translation in English could be "humanity towards others." Another translation would be: "The belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity."

Auf seiner LinuxTag-Keynote sprach Ubuntu-Macher Mark Shuttleworth nicht nur über seine Vorstellungen von Open-Source-Software, sondern verriet auch ein paar Details über die neue Version der von ihm initiierten Linux-Distribution – am 1. Juni soll "Dapper Drake" erscheinen. Sie soll dem Nutzer die Wahl zwischen drei Desktops lassen: Gnome, dem in Kubuntu verwendeten KDE und Xfce in Xubuntu. Dieser Desktop gilt als funktionsreich und intuitiv und soll auf älterer Hardware dennoch flüssig laufen.
Alles weitere Begehrenswerte, das halt ins Original (noch) nicht integriert werden darf, holt man sich via automatix
Ubuntu Certified Professional[edit]
Starting in June 2006, you can soon get certified.
"The Ubuntu certification will consist of a single exam on top of LPI's existing 101 and 102 exams. This will give candidates the advantage of an existing global standard, LPIC-1, plus the “Ubuntu Certified Professional�? status."
