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

Sorry Mark, but as many above I also cannot consider this bug being fixed. Only last week I wanted to buy a new Canonical certified hardware from Dell - they definitely do not want to sell a non-Windows PC to me. Best offer I could get (after insisting) is at about 1 third more expensive. I never

Just this week, a corporate customer with whom I am starting a business relationship sent me a ms word document with a form that I needed to fill in order for them to register me as a supplier. Needless to say, I had to use ms word to open it. I tried to do it in libreoffice but all the layout

Hi :) It's probably better to tell them further down the road.  Once you have become a bit friendlier with each other and they know 1st hand that you are excellent and provide good quality services. It might surprise them how much extra effort you had to and were willing to put in to secure

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

Hi :) The problem is that people are comparing installing Ubuntu against using a system that is already installed for them.  A pre-installed systems means you don't have to do anything to install it.  Of course that is easier than installing it yourself!  I'm not quite sure about the

The bugs name should be altered. I think Microsoft is just one player in this game. Have you realized some things changed since the 90's? Just imagine... Oracle took over Sun, Apple released OS 10 (X) and BSD is a powerful and usable OS . :-] Seriously guys I think Microsoft is not the biggest
