The Bug!!!

THE AIM OF UBUNTU:

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.


It is the beginning of the end!!! Open is aggressive now, like never before, with the Ubuntu release of Karmic Koala coming up this October end and Lucid Lynx in mid April 2010 to be followed by Mystic Mammoth; the future seems bright for the Freemasons of the Wild in their war against the Orthodox Church of Proprietarians ...
