Don't get me wrong: I am strongly convinced about the Open Source model and I appreciate the work and contribution of everyone. And of course I get all the contributions of the others for free. I am also convinced of the Ubuntu philosophy. My message should be, that with all the new ideas, don't forget about the quality - it is high priority! I left Windows because I could not rely on the core OS any more - that was my main reason to leave. Would be terrible if I would end up the same way using Ubuntu. -- Martin Wildam http://www.google.com/profiles/mwildam -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu 4 dz, which is a direct subscriber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1 Title: Microsoft has a majority market share Status in Club Distro: Confirmed Status in Computer Science Ubuntu: Invalid Status in EasyPeasy Overview: Invalid Status in GNOME Screensaver: Won't Fix Status in Ichthux - Linux for Christians: Invalid Status in JAK LINUX: Invalid Status in The Linux OS Project: In Progress Status in The Metacity Window Manager: In Progress Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite: In Progress Status in Tabuntu: Invalid Status in A simple player to online TV streaming: Invalid Status in Tv-Player: New Status in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “ubuntu-express” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in The Jaunty Jackalope: Invalid Status in “ubuntu-express” source package in Jaunty: Invalid Status in Baltix GNU/Linux: Invalid Status in “linux” package in Debian: In Progress Status in Fluxbuntu: The Lightweight, Productive, Agile OS: Confirmed Status in openSUSE: In Progress Status in Tilix Linux: New Bug description: Microsoft has a majority market share in the new desktop PC marketplace. 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
