Ubuntu

From MawsonLakes.Org

From the blurb on the CD jacket:

Ubuntu is a computer operating system consisting of free and open source software. With Ubuntu you can surf the web, read email, create documents, spreadsheets and more! Ubuntu gives you power and flexibility for business, education and home use.

Ubuntu is easy to install, free of viruses, and perfect for laptops, desktops and servers. The CD will install in a dozen languages; many more languages are available for download. Ubuntu is community developed, commercially supported, and offers free updates for at least 18 months after release.

"Ubuntu" is an ancient African word that means "humanity to others". This Linux distribution brings the spirit of Ubuntu to the software world.

MawsonLakes.Org has Ubuntu CD's to give away, so send us an email and if you live in Mawson Lakes we'll put one in your letter box. or post one out to you.
