 > The only problem that occurred during the installation; was that when 
the user inserted the installation disc; it would sometimes ask them for 
a password. I told them to leave the password field blank, because there 
was no password, and that seemed to work. This only happened in a few 
cases and was not a major problem.

@IDWMaster: Aren't you talking about the password to unlock the keyring 
that stores other passwords like a WEP or WPA wireless one?
I that is the case, it's recommended to set up one since no password 
will leave to unencrypted storage of the stored passwords.
This prompt only appears if the user has auto login (like the "ubuntu" 
user on a Live Session).


Take care everyone,
zakzor

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.
