Noob-untu-ism isn't nice.

| Canonical Ltd. has recognized the importance of making Software Libre easy
| and accessible for users of all skill levels. Rather than focusing narrowly
| on corporate or scientific uses of technology, Canonical has created a Linux
| based Operating System and dubbed it Ubuntu (meaning "Humanity to others").
| The motto for Ubuntu Linux, "Linux for human beings", implies that technology
| can and should be designed to be easy and intuitive for the average user.
|
| As a result of the user-friendly design principal promoted by Canonical,
| Ubuntu has become a widely used and actively developed Operating System.
| Making software that is simple and powerful has helped our community to grow
| into demographics which might not have otherwise experienced the benefits and
| liberation provided by ongoing efforts. There is also strong community
| support for Ubuntu, including discussion forums, a community wiki and a
| highly active IRC chatroom.

Xubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) Screenshots Tour
,----[ Quote ]
| Xubuntu is a complete GNU/Linux based operating system with an Ubuntu base.
| It is lighter on system requirements and tends to be more efficient than
| Ubuntu with GNOME or KDE, since it uses the Xfce Desktop environment, which
| makes it ideal for old or low-end machines, thin-client networks, or for
| those who would like to get more performance out of their hardware.

Wubi-ing Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Beta
,----[ Quote ]
| One benefit I enjoy working at Tyler Projects was the freedom in choosing the
| operating system I want. My PC is quite a powerful machine, with 2 GB ram and
| dual cores. It ran Vista quite seamlessly. I decided to install Ubuntu Linux
| I could have easily setup a dual boot but I decided to take this opportunity
| to try out the Wubi installer for the first time. For those not in the know,
| Wubi allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu as any other Windows
| application, in a simple way that is hardly rocket science.
