My first experience with ubuntu was very good. Everything worked out of the box. The only driver problem I have had was with my lexmark printer.Thats because Lexmark has chosen to not support linux.I run an old windows os partition just for that printer It took me three days to get the driver and to get it up and running.I have an older computer and if you could put vista or win. 7 on it I still would not put out the money for it.WE have bought 2 95 , two 98 .1 Me . and 1 xp Totaling nearly $ 700.00 . I have used every ubuntu since 6.06 and a couple of other linux distros for a total cost of zero . Ill stick with ubuntu.

This is a bug, which Ubuntu is designed to fix. Non-free software is holding back innovation in the IT industry, restricting access to IT to a small part of the world's population and limiting the ability of software developers to reach their full potential, globally. This bug is widely evident in the PC industry. Steps to repeat: 1. Visit a local PC store. What happens: 2. Observe that a majority of PCs for sale have non-free software pre-installed. 3. Observe very few PCs with Ubuntu and free software pre-installed. What should happen: 1. A majority of the PCs for sale should include only free software like Ubuntu. 2. Ubuntu should be marketed in a way such that its amazing features and benefits would be apparent and known by all. 3. The system shall become more and more user friendly as time passes. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~algeriatul Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~algeriatul More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
