Ubuntu enables a thriving ecosystem of suppliers who offer commercial devices and services around the OS. This is a guest post from System76, the technology company that builds all their retail devices for Ubuntu.
All System76 laptops, desktops and servers are loaded with Ubuntu and are custom built to every order.
With lifetime support, the systems enable creators, makers and builders alike to focus on their craft while System76 perfects the computing tools they need to be successful.
System76 is flying up to ten people within the US to their headquarters in Denver, CO to see the release of their new Ubuntu computers. Additionally, winners will take part in a round table discussion to share their ideas for future products.
System76’s Superfan contest asks participants to submit any creation that showcases why they should win a trip to their US headquarters in Denver, Colorado. Beyond the trip to HQ and opportunity to see the latest Ubuntu products, winners will take part on a roundtable discussion to share their ideas for future products. Even those who’ve never used System76 computers, are encouraged to apply and share their enthusiasm for Ubuntu, FOSS, or your curiosity to try their products via social media.
