Keeping Ubuntu CDs Available

,----[ Quote ]
| One of the ways in which many people have 
| been able to experience Ubuntu is via 
| Canonicalâs ShipIt program, which has 
| shipped millions of CDs to new users. This 
| has provided a valuable opportunity for new 
| users to try Ubuntu and for our community 
| teams to obtain CDs as part of their 
| advocacy efforts.

Getting Ready For Karmic Koala â Ubuntu, Kubuntu, 
Xubuntu â. Which one should you use?

,----[ Quote ]
| Inspite of all these variants, Ubuntu, 
| Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Edubuntu and Ubuntu Studio 
| are basically the same thing underneath the 
| desktop environment. As a result of this 
| even if you choose to use any one of these, 
| you can just install another over it and 
| have both of them so that you can choose 
| which one you want to use. For example, if 
| you are using Ubuntu, you can just install 
| kubuntu-desktop and have both Ubuntu and 
| Kubuntu. So the great thing about this is 
| that it does not really matter which  *buntu 
| you start off with; you can always install 
| another and have two or maybe more of them.

Another Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala Review

,----[ Quote ]
| Karmic Koala is Brilliant. It is a major update
| to Ubuntu. The new look and feel is really great.
| I doubt it will be changing much more before
| release but as always I should probably add a
| YMMV here.
|
| If you are using Jaunty or earlier on your
| desktop, Iâd recommend that you give this release
| a try. If you are thinking about coughing up
| hard-earned money for that other operating system
| that is coming out this month, donât. Youâll be
| wasting your cash and be getting a less secure,
| less functional, more resource hungry and just
| plain worse OS to boot! And do remember Iâm still
| using the Beta version of Ubuntu. The GA release
| will be out on the 29th Oct.
