I don't know if this was mention or not. I apologize if it has.... With Windoze preinstalled, they turn on their computer, it works, it to them it the concept of "if it's not broke, don't fix it". Their attitude would be the same if it was pre-installed with Linux. It's installed it works, don't change it.
What if the consumer was given the option of an OS. Sell computers with a blank slate. Don't preinstall an OS. Let them choose. Give them the option of A.) paying about $1000 or more for the OS and office applications they need, or B.) give them an OS and all of the applications they need free of charge. This would a stronge attack on the bug for a lot of custom PC builders and smaller PC shops. Just a thought. -- Microsoft has a majority market share https://launchpad.net/bugs/1 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
