      I first installed Ubuntu 5.10 shipment on an old toshiba PC that it's Windows 98 had failed to boot properly. I had anticipated sweating over the keyboard recompiling kernels and wasting precious work time. But due to the awesome simplicity of ubuntu- I was up and running in barely 45 minutes.

Hi guys,

  • I'm a part time university student and fulltime linux (ubuntu) programmer. I've only encountered linux for less than a year but my learning curve has so far been great. I inted to continue to make it a trajectory - I just don't know where it will land me eventually. When I started computer (windows 3.x), Bill Gates was the only name I knew in the software world. Curiousity drve me to know about Richard Stallman and Linus Trovald. During the Internet age I also learnt of geeks who made a fortune out of the OSS; the likes of Jerry Yang, Larry Page and undoubtedly Mark Shuttleworth. Most surprising thing of all is the fact that most of the SAP's I rely on are actually UNIX based. So, why not make a switch to linux?
