* “Ubuntu: upgrade your computer twice a year, for free, forever” * “Ubuntu: makes your computer work properly” * “Ubuntu: it's your choice, dammit!” * “Ubuntu: hippies make good software” * “Ubuntu: commies make good software” We're probably gonna have to advertise negatively against Windows, because most people don't know what an operating system is—they don't realise they have a choice: * “Ubuntu: makes Windows look really, really rubbish” * “Ubuntu: Don't you just *love* Windows? Yay Microsoft!” * “Ubuntu: Windows is hopeless” * “Ubuntu: we actually improve it ever” * “Ubuntu: *not* made by Microsoft” * “Ubuntu: better than Windows, like how Firefox was better than IE” I think comparing Ubuntu to Firefox might be a good tactic (as long as Mozilla don't complain too hard). Or we could just plagiarise Mastercard: * “Upgrading Windows: £100; Upgrading Mac OS X: £89; Upgrading to Ubuntu: priceless” * “Windows: £100; OS X: £89; freedom: priceless (oh, and it's free too)” Or Magnatune: * “Ubuntu: we are not evil” Ooh! How about: * “Ubuntu: a free man's Mac” —then we'll get all the Mac zealots saying Ubuntu isn't comparable to OS X because it doesn't {foo} and then everyone will like Ubuntu because of their utter disdain for precious zealots.

"The simplest Operating System" -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Philip Newborough Sent: 02 October 2007 02:19 To: British Ubuntu Talk Subject: [ubuntu-uk] Ubuntu Tag Lines? Hello list I'm working on some web based adverts to do a little Ubuntu advocacy. Now I know you 'orrible lot are a talented bunch [FYI - that was some flattery] so I thought I'd ask for your ideas and opinions. Basically there's an image based link along with a text based link. The images are already sorted but the text based links need a little creative thinking. The format goes like this: Ubuntu Linux, <--insert tag line with 10 words or less--> The tag line needs to sell Ubuntu as best as it can. Serious and comical suggestions welcome :-) Any help is greatly appreciated. Cheers Phil/. P.S. No points for suggesting "Linux for Human Beings!" :D -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/

Ubuntu Linux, making computing fun again. Ubuntu Linux, we know what community means. Ubuntu Linux, just works. Ubuntu Linux, always free, always fun. Ubuntu Linux, no viruses, no malware, just honest computing. Hmm. I haven't had my coffee this morning. Maybe I'll be more creative then.
