Ubuntu Linux.
Wind Minstrel Technologies advocate Linux systems for the home and small business. Ubuntu disks are always free of charge to interested parties, the spirit of Ubuntu stems from the Open Source networks and GPL software. Although easy to install, there is a small learning curve within the initial set-up of your system which Wind Minstrel will be more than happy to assist with. The term Ubuntu originates from an African word meaning 'Humanity to others', or 'I am what I am because of who we all are'. A typical installation takes about 25 minutes, once installed you will have access to a system from which you have email, a web browser, multimedia applications, office software and much more. Ubuntu is useful for everybody from the new user to the Linux power user. Contact Wind Minstrel if you are interested in upgrading to a system that harnesses the latest technologies from the Open Source community and a worldwide network of software developers, system administrators and Linux users.
