Actually, Ubuntu's naming convention is perfect for their target market, there must be something right about it because it certainly hasn't hurt their market share. Besides which doing something because of a negative attitude is not a good idea. We should learn from there mistakes and make sure we don't repeat them rather than trying to avoid what was patently successful for them. :) Cheers GL -- Graham Lauder, OpenOffice.org MarCon (Marketing Contact) NZ http://marketing.openoffice.org/contacts.html OpenOffice.org Migration and training Consultant.
