http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_(Linux_distribution)

"The name of the distribution comes from the African concept of ubuntu which may be rendered roughly as "humanity toward others", "we are people because of other people", or "I am who I am because of who we all are", though other meanings have been suggested."

Ubuntu is Zwahili for: "Screw your network card, I ain't gonna operate it."

I found that - I was just about the post it before you but the phone rang with a terrible emergency down at the hospital and I had to rush down and was just out of time to repost it.
