Ubuntu was conceived in 2004 by \Index[Shuttleworth, Mark]{Mark Shuttleworth}, a successful South African entrepreneur, and his company \Index[Canonical]{\gls{Canonical}}. \marginnote{Canonical is the company that provides financial and technical support for Ubuntu. It has employees based around the world who work on developing and improving the operating system, as well as reviewing work submitted by volunteer contributors.

\Index[Shuttleworth, Mark]{Shuttleworth} set out with clear intentions to address these weaknesses and create a system that was easy to use, completely free (see \chaplink{ch:learning-more} for the complete definition of ``free''), and could compete with other mainstream operating systems. With the \Index{Debian} system as a base, \Index[Shuttleworth, Mark]{Shuttleworth} began to build Ubuntu. Using his own funds at first, installation \acronym{CD}s were pressed and shipped worldwide at no cost to the end user. Ubuntu spread quickly, the size of the community rapidly increased, and it soon became the most popular Linux \gls{distribution} available.

Con el sistema \Index{Debian} como base, \Index[Shuttleworth, Mark]{Shuttleworth} comenzó a construir Ubuntu. Usando sus propios fondos al principio, los \acronym{CD}s de instalación fueron fabricados y enviados por todo el mundo sin coste alguno para el usuario final. Ubuntu se extendió deprisa, el tamaño de la comunidad aumentó rápidamente, y pronto se convirtió en la \gls{distribution} Linux disponible más popular.

With more people working on the project than ever before, Ubuntu continues to see improvement to its core features and hardware support, and has gained the attention of large organizations worldwide. For example, in 2007, \Index{Dell} began a collaboration with \Index{Canonical} to sell computers with Ubuntu preinstalled. Additionally, in 2005, the French Police began to transition their entire computer infrastructure to a variant of Ubuntu\dash a process which has reportedly saved them ``millions of euros'' in licensing fees for Microsoft Windows. By the year 2012, the French Police anticipates that all of their computers will be running Ubuntu. \Index{Canonical} profits from this arrangement by providing technical support and custom-built software.

Con más gente trabajando como nunca antes en el proyecto, Ubuntu sigue mejorando sus características y el soporte de hardware, y se ha ganado la atención de grandes organizaciones en todo el mundo. Por ejemplo, en 2007, \Index{Dell} comenzó una colaboración con \Index{Canonical} para vender equipos con Ubuntu preinstalado. Además, en 2005, la policía francesa empezó una transición para cambiar sus infraestructuras informáticas de todo el equipo a una variante de Ubuntu, un proceso que según informes, ahorró «millones de euros» en licencias de Microsoft Windows. Para el año 2012, la Policía francesa prevé que la totalidad de sus equipos funcionará con Ubuntu. \Index{Canonical} se beneficia en este sentido en la prestación de apoyo técnico y por el software hecho a medida.

\marginnote{For information on Ubuntu Server Edition, and how you can use it in your company, visit \url{http://www.ubuntu.com/business/server/overview}.} While large organizations often find it useful to pay for support services, \Index[Shuttleworth, Mark]{Shuttleworth} has promised that the Ubuntu desktop system will always be free. As of 2010, Ubuntu is installed on nearly 2\% of the world's computers. This equates to millions of users worldwide, and is growing each year.
