Linux
More Than a Gigabuck: Estimating GNU/Linux's Size, a 2001 study of Red Hat Linux 7.1, found that this distribution contained 30 million source lines of code.[10] Using the Constructive Cost Model, the study estimated that this distribution required about eight thousand man-years of development time. According to the study, if all this software had been developed by conventional proprietary means, it would have cost about 1.08 billion dollars (year 2000 U.S. dollars) to develop in the United States.Also worth noting is that Playstation 3 will run Linux by default. According to the GPL License Sony will be obliged to release the source code to whatever modifications they have made for their custom (presumably) linux kernel. That will be an interesting point in time.
In a later study, Counting potatoes: The size of Debian 2.2, the same analysis was performed for Debian GNU/Linux version 2.2.[11] This distribution contained over fifty-five million source lines of code, and the study estimated that it would have cost 1.9 billion dollars (year 2000 U.S. dollars) to develop by conventional means.

Κάποια Ubuntu specific sites μπορείς να βρείς εδώ:
http://planet.ubuntulinux.org/
http://ubuntuforums.org/
Ενώ για εφαρμογές υπάρχει πάντα το http://distrowatch.com/
Για word προτείνω OpenOffice, για graphic editor το GIMP και για HTML editor (θα σου φανεί παράξενο αλλά το προτιμώ) το Vim!
