不用說，這又是民間人士的功勞。得益於 Ubuntu Christmas Edition 在兩周時間所獲得的 15000 份下載量的巨大成功，該人士趁機推出了 Ubuntu Ultimate Edition（Ubuntu 終極版）。Ubuntu 終極版在 Ubuntu Edgy Eft 的基礎上添加了大量的軟件，這種做法可能會為使用者省掉不少的時間。

看到這份長長的列表，我的感覺是相當豐富。不過，基於版權的考慮，在 Ubuntu 終極版中沒有預先安裝下列軟件：Flash、Java、Acrobat Reader、Google Earth 等。但是，你可以通過其網站所提供的源來安裝這些軟件。
就我個人而言，我更願意從最基本的來打造一個適合自己使用的系統。因為唯其如此，才會享受到身在其中的樂趣。
