I was waiting for so long,my 2 ubuntu order(2006.1.4 and 2006.1.14)
arrived together today ---- The first order 15 CDs and the second
order 45 CDs.Thanks for ubuntu group's work and gift :)



There is a text "linux for human beings" under the big "Ubuntu" on
the cover,maybe Fedora is for spirit?Debian is for evil?Gentoo is
for God?



But the first 15 CDs looks like have some problems.I cann't use the
live CD(a ubuntu demo in CD which does not need to install) to try
ubuntu on my PC,another explain is my CD-ROM works out.Luckly ,I
have more discs to try one by one.



After all,the demo ubuntu is running on my box.While installing I
didn't config anything nor give any information about my computer
and my networking enviroment,but the clever boy recognized all
devices and fetch IP address from the router.



What surprise me is the new OS is more easy to use than Windows XP
in some aspect,when I connect the Kodak 7440 to PC ,a window is
poped up,prompting me to import photos into PC, there is no need to
install any program!Firefox and OpenOffices are installed too.And a
bittorrent client is placed in Applications---->Internet program
menu.Thanks for gnome project, we can get so many program and tools
we need in daily work.



One of weaknesses is the same to other Linux including my
Debian:

Chinese font looks still ugly,but English font is so clear,I like
it!Some others are :

I cann't find Chinese input method easily,or it was not involved in
default settings.That's why I type words here in my poor
English.

Cann't play mp3s,rm videos, maybe it was caused by some license
reason.



Well,It's a good OS for daily use,you can find Internet
brawser,mail client,office software suit,text editor,media
player,network share tools after installing.



I have 40 CDs for x86,15CDs for x86 64-bit and 5CDs for Mac ,any
one who need CDs just give me a message on msn or email,I am glad
to deliver CDs for you.Also you can appy CDs by yourself,navigate
to shipit.ubuntu.com



Some words on the ubuntu CD's cover:



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



Ubuntu is Software Libre.You are legally entitled and encouraged to
copy,share and redistribute this CD for yourself and your
friends.Share the spirit of Ubuntu!
