Why are major chains in Spain offering Ubuntu? Probably because they
don't know any better. Once they find out how limited Ubuntu is and
what a TOY it is, they will quickly change their minds. Remember,
Ubuntu is FREE and NOBODY wants Ubuntu. That should tell you what a
"quality" [NOT] product it really is.
Ubuntu is good for geeks who want to play with their computers or the
occasional person who wants to surf the web or write a letter to Mom,
but for real work, they need a REAL OS. That is where Windows comes
in. If they don't like Vista they can use XP.
