The Xubuntu Difference

有许多不同的操作系统都是基于Linux的:例如Debian, SuSE, Gentoo, Red Hat 和 Mandriva。在这个竞争已十分激烈的世界里,Xubuntu成为了又一位竞争者。那么是什么让Xubuntu与众不同?

Xubuntu is part of the Ubuntu family of Linux distributions, and is based on Debian, one of the most widely acclaimed, technologically advanced, and well-supported distributions. Xubuntu aims to create a distribution that provides an up-to-date and coherent Linux system for desktop and server computing. Xubuntu includes a number of carefully selected packages from the Debian distribution and retains its powerful package management system which allows easy installation and clean removal of programs. Unlike most distributions that ship with a large amount of software that may or may not be of use, Xubuntu's list of packages is reduced to a number of important applications of high quality.

着眼于质量的Xubuntu 强大而富于功能性,同时适于家庭,商业和教育场合的应用. 此计划每六个月放出一个新版本,保证系统拥有最新最好的应用软件以及更完善的细节处理. Xubuntu来者不惧 适用于各种 i386(386/486/Pentium(II/III/IV)和Athlon/Duron/Sempron等i386兼容处理器,AMD64(Athlon64, Opteron, 和新的64-bit Intel处理器). 还有社区维护的PowerPC版本(iBook/Powerbook, G4 and G5)
