Here we all know how to pronounce (https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/about-ubuntu/C/about-ubuntu-name.html) Ubuntu, but some people need a little help. I made these to try to get the word out:

That's pretty creative! It gave me a little laugh. Maybe I should replace my regular Ubuntu sticker with that! :biggrin:

Talk about old hardware, that's a thinkpad.

Though I'm one to talk, I use a T41 as my main computer. Nice sticker though.

I know it's pronounced that way, but I still sometimes find myself saying "oo-bun-too". It just sounds better and more natural to me.

Anyway, nice sticker!

Good idea. It might work with English, but in other languages you'd need a different sticker.

Ex: in French, you'd write "OU-BOUN-TOU" for instance.
