"""
The French Parliament looks to be the next big Ubuntu switcher according 
to reports. Recently the Parliament produced an official government 
report that recommended the use of free software over proprietary 
software. The switch to free software is expected to provide a 
substantial savings to the tax-payers according to the government study.

By the way, shouldn't that just be "Ubuntu", I thought that the "Linux" 
part was dropped after the discussion about "Ubuntu GNU/Linux" vs 
"Ubuntu Linux"?
