Ubuntu completes 9 Years.

OMG Ubuntu released this beautiful infographic, which talks about the history of Ubuntu.

 

I have literally grown (yes, even my waist) as a person when working with Ubuntu.

 

I have been using Ubuntu since 2004, when I only used to flirt with Linux. What tickled me back then was the Ubuntu was afrikaans for freedom.

 

2006 was the first time when I stopped using Windows altogether and worked for 2 straight years on Dapper Drake.

 

Those were the days, when I was single, was in Hyderabad and spent consecutive new years eves drinking a single malt and installing a new version of Ubuntu.

 

As I look back and see how working on Ubuntu has impacted me, and my preferred style of working,

 

I only appreciate that this distro has made such a huge impact on personal computing, that its being used by non-techies to do day to day work.

 

It is because of such distros the Linux has been touted as the future of gaming.
