- Linux for human beings is their motto, and yes, it is very true, Ubuntu (African word that means unity btw) was muy first aproach to go out of my comfort zone (windows xp) to venture on other platforms and I love it, still use it as a side OS and on certian time it was my main OS, actually looking forward to install it on my new laptop.
