It’s Ubuntu Evolution BABY!!!
July 17, 2007 at 1:19 pm | In Uncategorized | 15 CommentsAlright… I was siting on my computer with a little time to share…
I have seen several cool OS evolution, Fedora’s, and much recently I saw Window’s (they missed Millennium Edition). I have seen tons and tons of screenshots of Ubuntu screenshots on the web. So I decided to set up this little evolution for the Ubuntu desktops…
As I looked at them I remembered different moments in my last two years. It literally brought tears in my eyes. and one can only wait til Gutsy hits the mainstream 
.
This is a tribute to the Desktop Team… CHEERS GUYS…
P.S. maybe someone can do the same for Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Edubuntu, add infinitum…

Don’t use evolution and baby in the same sentence. It always remember me this clip from Pearl Jam

Very cool. I think looking back, the best background goes to “Hoary”. It looks much more unique than the others. This is a great retrospective.

Being Ubuntu a ‘beautified’ Debian clone, sinceresly … i’m not seeing any sign of evolution here. Really. Oh well, wait: promoting closed source and propietary tools like Launchpad … yeah, LOL.
Nah, Ubuntu is only a popular distro for extremly newbie users, without any real technical merit implemented (except all the work … copied from Debian). It’s a shame that all the hard work done by Debian isn’t being recognized … a shame. Nice move, Mr. Shuttleworth. A really nice marketing move. Shame on you.

[...] Ho trovato, grazie a pollycoke, una serie di articoli con le immagini dell’evoluzione di alcuni sistemi operativi. Qui sotto ci sono le immagini di Windows 1.01 e di Vista (dall’articolo con la storia di Windows), ma ci sono anche gli articoli dedicati a Fedora (un po’ datato a dir la verità, si ferma al 5) e Ubuntu.
