[ubuntu-in] Ubuntu User Experience Survey
Hi all, Forwarding the message for everyones' information. - Forwarded message from Mackenzie Morgan - Date: Tue, 24 May 2011 21:13:01 -0400 From: Mackenzie Morgan To: loco-conta...@lists.ubuntu.com Subject: Please share with your LoCos When your interaction with other Ubuntu users is entirely made up of developers talking about bugs they need to fix and users seeking support (IRC, forums, bug reports), your perspective changes. It's hard to get a good idea of the big picture. What portion of users are hitting problems in what areas? How do users who've reported bugs feel about the experience? How are the local community teams doing? That kind of stuff is hard to wrap your head around without metrics. To that end, a bunch of members of the Ubuntu community have worked together to create a survey that'll help those of us working on various parts of Ubuntu understand where we need to improve and how we can do better. If you have an opinion on Ubuntu, please take 5 minutes to fill out the following Ubuntu User-Experience survey: http://is.gd/vnPvog Thank you! -- Mackenzie Morgan -- loco-contacts mailing list loco-conta...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts - End forwarded message - -- Regards, Nitesh Mistry | www.mistrynitesh.com PGP key id: A6FEF696 | 'geekosopher' on freenode irc pgpOmY2Xvz10v.pgp Description: PGP signature -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

There is a poll - with (when i voted) 34 votes of which linux only is 47 % and Linux and Windows dual booting is 41 %. It may not be scientific but it still allows us to know what people are up to - about 88 % use linux as opposed to the over hyped apple . However it leads to a deeper question - why are the people who dual boot using dual boot. I dual boot any my reasons are 1. M$ isn't returning my money if i uninstall windows 2. Some hardware works only on windows (or i haven't been able to get said hardware to work on linux) 3. Some "official sites" require windows / ms office / i.e explorer and emulation seems to not work. (e.g income tax e return filing forms in .xls) ** so while the above questions are off topic - its just to indicate that visiting aforementioned blog got me thinking (yet again) about what reasons people have for dual booting Ram _ http://www.munsiari.com -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

For the pros, URLs do not count much, just a hype. Funny. On Wed, May 25, 2011 at 1:04 PM, Mehul Ved wrote: > On Tue, May 24, 2011 at 6:07 PM, ANKUR AGGARWAL > wrote: > >> Sorry.
