Xubuntu

“I have the need-the need for speed!”
~ Tom Cruise on Xubuntu
Xubuntu is a version of Ubuntu designed for three types of people: poor people who can't afford fast computers, speed freaks who need Linux to run uber-fast in order to compensate for its flaws, and people who don't like KDE, GNOME or the bash shell, even when Xfce is really just GNOME on crack.

[edit] Orgins
The concept of Xubuntu was first founded during a drunken IRC session on #ubuntu-dev channel. The log went something like this:
markyshuttle: y'know, i just don't think ubuntu and kubuntu are fast enuff mann... buntudev: whatdaja mean? oss_crowd: yeah, and all the buntus now make my head spin linustovarlds(daGIT): fcuk u alls markyshuttle: Shut the fuck up Linus, and fuck off back to #kerneldev rms: Hey, infdel, I'm inclinded to agree with with fat shit on this one markyshuttle: So what? you're the fucker who came up with the the whole fucking 'by nerds for nerds shit. how the fuck am i meant to make a fucking profitable linux distro out of the fucking BNFN proto? oss_crowd: wtf? canocial is in oss for the money?!?!? markyshuttle: no, fuck no, that's not what I fucking meant! rms: yes you did markyshuttleworth: no I didn't rms: yes you did! markyshuttle: no I didn't rms: yes you did!! canocial_legal: The views of Mark Shuttleworth are not necessarily those of Canocial Inc. oss_crowd: WTF? MS is Canocical Inc. canocial_legal: No he isn't. He's a fat South African shit who's been in space.
[edit] Creation
Xubuntu was released alongside Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu and Whatthefuckarewegoingtocallthenextfuckingbuntu version 6.06, codenamed 'Drake the Dyke'. While some had complaints about its colour scheme being to close to Kubuntu's, most where seduced by the free crack on offer with every download. BitTorrent users were pissed, when they discovered that the deal did not apply to them. They responded by posting lots of pictures of Mark Shuttleworth with a Russian Cosmonaut, in a highly compromising situation.
[edit] On the Server
“YOU FUCKING STOLE IT! AGAIN!”
~ RMS on Xubuntu's speed when used as a server, even with a GUI
Xubuntu is googling fast when run as a server, even with a GUI. Mark Shuttleworth recently won the right to throw a pie in the face of RMS at the 2006 OScon, due to a bet that a non-graphical Debian GNU/Linux server (the only 'real' Linux in RMS's eyes) would perform faster.
[edit] Future
The next Xubuntu release, codenamed 'E-Sexy Efe' is coming in June. It promises the following features:
- A genuine copy of Xfce, not a cheap Chinese knock-off like this time.
- An index to the manual
- A guide to the manual
- Note: The manual will not be implemented till Horny Hedgehog. Horny Hedgehog VII.
- No more drugs
- Especialy Ice
- But not counting crack as a drug.
- Well, something has to make the mouse run around the fucking wheel!
- Even more speed tweaks. An AMD 64 4000+ will reach Mach 26 even when running Openoffice.org!
- Not even the Space Shuttle can run Openoffice.org that fast
