If you use a computer for audio, image, or video editing tasks, you might want to take a look at a new Operating System distribution called Ubuntu Studio.

Ubuntu Studio is based on Ubuntu, a great new Linux operating system designed to be usable by people who don’t speak in computer code or live in their mothers’ basements. It includes powerful open source alternatives to many industry standard programs like Photoshop, Pro Tools, and Adobe Premiere.

Oh, and the best part is that it’s free. Free as in beer, and free as in freedom.

I’m downloading it now, and I’ll write up a review if I find it particularly interesting.
