I was in a computer shop earlier, we were discussing Windows (the guy that worked there was saying how much he liked M$)... he then said (with no prompting) something to the line of "I think people will start using linux soon. All Ubuntu needs to do is change their menus so there's only one - at the bottom." i.e. to be more like Windows.
Unfortunately, I think this is partially true. Windows has a Start menu... that's extremely well understood, almost universally. So, people expect to see a menu and for it to be in the location they expect. It's seems to simple to even mention that Ubuntu has a menu, more than one in fact, but that it's in a different corner of the screen to its Windows counterpart, but I think something as simple as that will put off a huge number of people using it. I'm not saying we should change anything but, just like M$ said they took *a very long time* to design their Start button in Vista, I think for Jaunty some serious design decisions should be looked at to see if the current menu system/location is giving the best results. -- When FUSA applet has shutdown/logout items are duplicated in "System" menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283278 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
