"Ubuntu (/ʊˈbʊntuː/ uu-buun-too)[7][8] is an operating system with Linux kernel based on Debian and distributed as free and open source software. Ubuntu uses the Unity Desktop as its default desktop environment. It is named after the Southern African philosophy of ubuntu, which can be translated as "humanity towards others" or "the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity".[9]
As of 2012, according to online surveys, Ubuntu is the most popular Linux distribution on desktop/laptop personal computers,[10][11][12][13] and most Ubuntu coverage focuses on its use in that market. However, it is also popular on servers and for cloud computing.[14]
Development of Ubuntu is led by Canonical Ltd.,[15] a UK-based company owned by South African entrepreneur Mark Shuttleworth. Canonical generates revenue through the sale of technical support and services related to Ubuntu.[16] According to Canonical, the Ubuntu project is committed to the principles of open source development; people are encouraged to use free software, improve it, and distribute it.[17]"- en wikipedia

They can if they are programmed to.

Probably not, I tend not to use the same name for different boards. Call me crazy.

I actually tried to derail this thread and succeeded. How does this make you feel?

Exactly Whent Hug said, an opensource based Operating system. The People who Use it often use other members of the Ubuntu Community to discuss, in an open forum (such as this) various topics such as what Mods are best, Desktop skins, Tips and tricks, as well as making the trasitionary of the Hardcore greenys going from Windows to Linux easier.

Basically The Ubuntu Community Boards is a Hangout, Support, and Disscusion plac4e.

Then again, I may be rec ognizing names from the LoL boards, Penguin being one of them rofl (not sure if same spencidile)
