Hello all. New user here. Tired of the windows thing. Constant updated, viruses, a new pricey version every year.....

Somebody at work pointed  Ubuntu.

My internet is slow so I must buy the CDs. I want to try a few different flavors to see which I like best.

I saw an Ebay seller selling a Linux CD with 3 version on it or maybe 3 disc,

UBUNTU 11
VECTOR LINUX
LINUX MINT

A  few questions,

Can people sell Ubuntu?

Is it possible for some Ubuntu haters to be selling fake linux discs with viruses to try to deter some?

How can I know if this is authentic?

Thanks

They might be cashing in because download 0.5GB is most countries not possible. It is hard to answer what they could put inside those CD's.

Instead the best way is one of the following:

If you have faster connection, you can download directly from http://www.ubuntu.com/download

or

you can order CD directly from http://shop.canonical.com/index.php?currency=USD&cPath=17 which is ubuntu's official shopping site.
