The Great Ubuntu Community (Score 1)

As a recent convert to Linux, I can say from my own experience that it wasn't the coolest new version of some package that awoke my interest. It was the ubuntuforums.org community. When I saw the level of support and the way users clearly had a common goal, I realized it was time to leave windows behind. And best of all its been a succesful transition due to the great support I recieved when I had problems. There is no one simple Linux users manual. Most people dont have a freind they can ask for help, like with Windows. There are truly brilliant people out there, and I would as them, istead of feeling great that you have more knowledge than others, try feeling great by helping others and furthering something that is truly important: a community that believes in free software, that believes information and the access to it should never be restricted or controlled.
