Ubuntu
Linux is a complete desktop Linux operating system, freely
available with both community and professional support. The
Ubuntu community is built on the ideas enshrined in the
Ubuntu Manifesto: that software should be available free of
charge, that software tools should be usable by people in
their local language and despite any disabilities, and that
people should have the freedom to customise and alter their
software in whatever way they see fit. "Ubuntu" is an
ancient African word, meaning "humanity to others". The
Ubuntu Linux distribution brings the spirit of Ubuntu to
the software world.

Red Hat, open for general participation, led by a
meritocracy, following a set of project objectives. The
goal of The Fedora Project is to work with the Linux
community to build a complete, general purpose operating
system exclusively from open source software. Development
will be done in a public forum. The project will produce
time-based releases of Fedora Core about 2-3 times a year,
with a public release schedule. The Red Hat engineering
team will continue to participate in building Fedora Core
and will invite and encourage more outside participation
than in past releases.

Mandriva
Linux (formerly Mandrakelinux) was created in 1998 with the
goal of making Linux easier to use for everyone. At that
time, Linux was already well-known as a powerful and stable
operating system that demanded strong technical knowledge
and extensive use of the "command line"; MandrakeSoft saw
this as an opportunity to integrate the best graphical
desktop environments and contribute its own graphical
configuration utilities and quickly became famous for
setting the standard in ease-of-use and functionality. With
this innovative approach, Mandriva Linux offers all the
power and stability of Linux to both individuals and
professional users in an easy-to-use and pleasant
environment. Thousands of new users are discovering Linux
each and every day and finding it a complete replacement
for their previous operating system. Linux as a server or
workstation has no reason to be jealous of any other more
established operating systems.
