I find that after a decent install most people don't even notice that they are using a different OS. Firefox is there and the menus easy to navigate. Documents open with a double-click.
As G stated it is the install process that is the most difficult part. We try to make that easy and many people have lists of what to do after a basic install in blogs and websites or in magazines. Forums are quite accessible and documentation aimed at noobs is quite prolific but still all the difficult part of the migration process is right at the start of using linux. This is the specific point of this bug#1 because a 'pre-installed' linux is very easy to use. -- Microsoft has a majority market share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu 4 dz, which is a direct subscriber.

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
