Re: [ubuntu-in] Problem playing .rm files
Don't brush off a ditro for a such trivia Ubuntu is miles ahead now with just one fact : HCL (5 models) and Dell (2 models) are shipping pre-installed machines (desktop/laptop) I have met non-techie people who wont install any OS by themselves be it Ubuntu/Windows. With pre-installed machines and commercial support Linux can gain more ground :) -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
