Four Most Unique Ubuntu Derivatives

,----[ Quote ]
| Thereâs no doubt that Ubuntu has 
| transformed the Linux landscape since its 
| introduction six years ago. It has modified 
| a few key technologies to ensure generally 
| demanding tasks under Linux, simpler for 
| even early computer users. Although, Ubuntu 
| was a debian-based distro, it is a popular 
| framework for several other distros.
| 
| Although you can take a basic Ubuntu source 
| code and make it into almost anything, 
| derivatives are quite popular because they 
| eliminate the need for custom 
| configurations. The huge number of distros 
| testifies to that!

The often undervalued opinion of the end-user

,----[ Quote ]
| There are over ten million users of Ubuntu 
| world wide. That means that there are ten 
| million people who have made a conscious 
| decision to install Ubuntu on their 
| computer. If these ten million people 
| werenât here, then we wouldnât exist. We 
| serve the end user, and because we serve 
| them, we want to keep them happy by 
| providing what they want.

I don't like what people tell me is good for me

,----[ Quote ]
| At any rate, the point I wanted to make was 
| simply that people need to complain and 
| need to rant about things, if you want them 
| to be good. So please donât take my rants 
| always as negative, I do rant, and 
| sometimes I rant a lot but I usually do 
| that because I want to improve the 
| situation.

| upcoming âLucid Lynxâ LTS release in April 
| â named âAmbienceâ and âRadianceâ.
