I was today years old when I learned that Ubuntu Pro is free if you are using it for personal use. (It can be used for up to 5 computers.) It only costs money if you want to use it to support a business infrastructure.
Signing up for Ubuntu Pro is easy-peasy! Simply navigate over to ubuntu.com/pro, click the “Get Ubuntu Pro Now” button, follow the steps, and voila! You’re good to go.
My 12 year old laptop feels brand spanking new, now that I have enabled Ubuntu Pro on it. The key difference between regular Ubuntu and Ubuntu Pro is that, while the regular version provides 5 years of software support, the Pro version provides 10 years of security updates, which is cool beans.
