Spending a Day with Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| I recently got a chance to spend an entire working day with Ubuntu at my 
| employer. This is sad, but I grabbed the wrong laptop on the way into work 
| and when I emerged from standby lo and behold I saw my Ubuntu desktop and not 
| my XP machine. Oops! Well - my commute is too long to go back so here’s how 
| my day unfolded.

Flashback: Nelson Mandela on the Meaning of "Ubuntu"

,----[ Quote ]
| What is Ubuntu? --I can hear you all saying that it is a popular Linux 
| distribution. What is the meaning of the word "Ubuntu"? --Some of you are 
| probably Googling for it right now :-)  
| 
| The first time I hear about Ubuntu Linux I also became curious about its 
| name. I’ve read articles explaining where the name comes from and what is its 
| real definition. But perhaps the most memorable explanation I’ve heard on the 
| meaning of Ubuntu came from one of the greatest leaders of our time.

Gameloft Moves 1,000 Desktops to Ubuntu Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| “It’s been a pretty big deployment, well over 1000 desktops and it’s been a
| huge success,” crows the source. “Ubuntu does the same job [as Windows] for
| zero cash. The most painful thing about the change over was moving to
| Thunderbird from Outlook. No one has batted an eyelid about moving to Gnome.”
