Ubuntu 'reaping Linux dividend'
The public perception of open source software is changing fast, said Mark Shuttleworth, who leads distribution of the Ubuntu operating system (OS). A new version of Ubuntu, a version of the Linux OS, is released on Thursday.

Mr Shuttleworth said the success of the Asus Eee PC and the work of the One Laptop Per Child programme had driven awareness of open source.

It's about freaking time for one to gain a lead. As long as it stays devided it will remain far from the top in terms of number of users and how easy it is to use.

Yeop, Ubuntu sure has changed things, i think only PC Linux OS is more popular on distrowatch but I could never get it to install on my lappy.

Linux Mint is my current favorite dist and its an Ubuntu derivative...
