Hello with Ubuntu


Hello world with my Ubuntu.
I wanna introduce this my OS to people!

Ubuntu is Linux distribution for desktops, laptops, and servers. It has consistently been rated among the most popular of the many Linux distributions.

"Ubuntu" is ancient African word that means "humanity to others", "we are people because of other people", or "I am who I am because of who we all are", though other meanings have been suggested.

Ubuntu is sponsored by Canonical Ltd, owned by South African entrepreneur Mark Shuttleworth.

Kubuntu and Xubuntu are official subprojects of the Ubuntu project, aiming to bring the KDE and Xfce desktop environments, respectively, to the Ubuntu core (by default Ubuntu uses GNOME for its desktop environment). Edubuntu is an official subproject designed for school environments, and should be equally suitable for children to use at home.
