ubuntu

a friend of mine introduced to me an open source operating system couple of months back...being a typical "malaysian", i was a bit reluctant and repulsive towards it..it took some convincing and a whole lot of assurance before i finally did make the quantum leap in migrating to ubuntu.
heyyy...what do you know...it wasnt bad at all...i would say that it is more fun and satisfying (by a tenth fold) by using ubuntu...it gives you the the ultimate satisfaction and the edge for you to really learn about your computers rather than just chewing whatever that is provided to ( + the satisfaction of not being cheated by Microsoft ;p )
ubuntu( an african words which means "humanity to others" ) is built with both professional and community support is based upon the ubuntu philosophy : that software should be available free of charge, that software tools should be usable by people in their local language and despite any disabilities, and that people should have the freedom to customise and alter their software in whatever way they see fit.
interesting isnt' it...even the philosophy, foundation and the ideas is sooo honorable...
you can get ubuntu from various sources on the net for free and, you're not gonna believe this, they will even send the ubuntu cd's for free right at your doorstep...amazing says you..well maybe there are certain people who really would like the world to be a better place...
sooo what say you....maybe it's time to change
lol (^_^)
