The BBC shouldn't be advocates, but should sit on the fence. Examples
like this and the scrolling bootup text aren't really sitting on the fence.

I did empathise with his line about knowledge being a barrier to entry,
hopefully that will be addressed naturally over time as the product matures.

It would be nice to see an alternative series of "it's hard to do"
articles - there are lots of things I find hard in Ubuntu, but there are
lots of things I find hard in Windows too which don't get airplay.

He noted how he wanted itunes-esque integration, well my g/f bought an
ipod thing at the weekend and I found iTunes to be largely non-intuitive
to use - certainly not the experience which the hype and his comments
would have had me believe.
