<i>Ubuntu</i> is a computer operating system that is based on the Debian Linux distribution.
<i>Linus Toralds</i> , while attending University in Helsinki Finland in the 1990s, wanted to create a UNIX-like operating system for his 386 computer. He created the Linux operating system, but what was interesting was that he made this OS open to allow others to see and modify the "open source" programming code to meet their needs. By making this operating system "open source", people worked together (collaborated) to make a better, current operating system. As a result of this collaboration, different versions of Linux have been created such as <i>Red Hat</i>, <i>Fedora</i>, <i> SuSE</i>, <i>Mandriva</i>, <i>Debian</i>, and <i>Ubuntu</i>.
