Re: [Bug 1] Re: Microsoft has a majority market share

 

+1 ..... the bug description itself never mentioned anything about developer
tools... for us that are already reading  this bug report we need to
influence (your favorite electronic shop here) to sell ubuntu certified
desktops,laptops,and mids.  This cannot be resolved by develops alone.

Visual Studio is a big fat thing and IDE features of NetBeans for
example are way better IMHO. Only advantage is the visual GUI editor
for web applications. But apart from that, it is an application for
developers - that is not the Focus of Ubuntu! There are other people
in charge for building development tools.

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.
