Yes , I have already been thinking that I should at least buy some t-shirts.
Ubuntu has some nice apparel.
Learn the principle, abide by the principle, and dissolve the principle. Obey the principle without being bound by it. This my friend, is the GnuFu.
Geeks die, but the Linux kernel lives forever.
I want one of the messenger bags so bad....
I think I read on the OpenGEu forums the reason for the rebranding... IIRC Canonical never reponded to their requests... therefore the name change.
Working from memory here so please correct me if I am wrong.
You have a lot to learn it seems,,,
If you are getting windows through education channels, that would be legal on if you are a qualified student or education member.
If you are obtaning windows through a relative that does not own the copies or liscenses his employer paid for, that is illegal. You can brag about your connections, but be mindful who you make them to. Or you might just get burned.
You don't have to pay for Linux and likely never will. My post has nothing to do with commercializing Linux. But rather looking out for each other in the community. Helping out in any way we can, be it tech support, coding and with donations. There is no dotten line detailing you have to do all or none... it is voluntary.
And there not need to be any shame on to those than can't code or offer support and choose to give a small donation. The reality is, that to get us what we need, there are certain costs involved.

I agree with you.
Unfortunately some people are like that... I must say it again... unfortunately MOST of the people are like that.
Ask to become a repository you don't have to give money.

Kind regards

Warpnow that isn't appropriate. Piracy is illegal, that's why its called piracy.
Every time you install Jaunty, a kitten........ wait sorry what year is this again?
Please don't PM support questions, post a thread so that everyone can benefit

I bought some merchandise from the Canonical store and now that I have an online-capable funds card I'll start donating to worthy projects.
I try to treat the cause, not the symptom. I avoid the terminal in instructions, unless it's easier or necessary. My instructions will work within the Ubuntu system, instead of breaking or subverting it. Those are the three guarantees to the helpee.
