Ubuntu fan over here. Why was it virtually left unmentioned in the article?

Fantastic! The linux that I have waited for! Hats off to you, mate! I have passed my copy about and convinced several of my mates to try it, and they ended up loading it, saying goodbye to Windows!! I would hope in the near future that more hardware drivers become available. It seems that some hardware manufacturers are somewhat reluctant to take the plunge, Lexmark in my case being one of them.Well done nonetheless!

Great article. I have played with a number of Linux distributions and have found Ubuntu to be very good. I am also embarking on a trip to South Africa as part of a volunteer effort to work with a couple of schools out there and am very excited to read that Mark has done a lot of work in that country. Great article.. Fantastic effort.

Great article but perhaps tags would work better were they correctly spelled. Ubuntu, not Unbuntu.

Thanks for Ubuntu Mark. After several abortive attempts early on in my attempted use of Linux, I have found your program to be exactly what I was looking for. So much so I use Ubuntu on my desktop, Kubuntu on my old desktop and Xubuntu on my old laptop. What I find intriguing are the differences between Windows and Ubuntu, not the similarities. I am an old dos line commando and have never embraced the whole Windows culture. Thanks again, keep it up.

There is a wealth pool of young minds to entice with alternative resources in this technological age. Keeping there youthful minds interested and on track is the challenge. Providing those children with an opportunity to succeed with what many of us take for granted is blessing. You have many obstacles to hurdle but your persistence will proliferate in the challenge.
