I thought Ubuntu is about free software that works for most computer machines. And it better have the Wine kernel too.

All those dang Linux newspeople already forgotten about the purpose of copyleft and open-source applications. They might as well join the Microsoft or Macintosh (haha) monpolies and FORGET about making good operating system softwares (just like Microsoft’s WINDOZE or Apple’s MAK-E-TOSH [find out what tosh means]). Can you imagine if Linux focus all its priorities on marketing and public relations? We can all say goodbye free products and services!

People seem to forget that these Linux distributions are free, so they should be satisfied for not paying a single penny/pound/peso/cigarette. If the public wants to throw away their money for their ignorance, especially DURING the recessions, they can kiss their savings goodbye.

I still think that Linux (Ubuntu) is good and shows promise for any (personal) computer user. Unfortunately, I have to find out the hard way that Dell PCs do not like the Linux OS softwares. Nevertheless, I am making this slow transition from (the activation of) commerical products to free products (that works). I haven’t experimented too much on the Ubuntu, but it seems to be as customizable as Windows.

As for the user friendly interface, Windows users should have already learned to install a Linux distribution. The Windows installation and DOS shell is sufficient enough to resolve enough problems for at least a Ubuntu installation.

I don’t want a free OS to become a full commericial commerce. Ubuntucat, can you email me how to get the Wine kernel to work on Ubuntu? If so, please email to my email address.

I would like you to know that I am an avid reader of your blog. I find it precious (minus the Linux stuff–I’m a Windows person) in ways that I rarely find blogs.
I found it by accident while I was googling the recent utilization of corporate proper nouns (such as Kleenex and Xerox) as replacements for their intended purpose (I think the post was titled “I will get PC about “PC”).

I could also relate to your stance on many issues, as I am a Euro-Arab hybrid (currently in high school), especially those on feminism and good grammar.

I read on here that you used to be a teacher, why aren’t you still one? From your writing I can tell your personality would certainly lighten up a class!

And the part about Steve Jobs denying the existence of Flash on the iPhone and the iPad?

I quietly believe that God spared him certain death by pancreatic cancer just so that he can continue in his Holy Mission to rid the temporal world of that scourge of mankind known as “FlashPlayer”…

And he’s using Marketing to do it! Go, Steve, go!!! :^D
