I'm not kidding at all - I win my money providing design decisions - I know how users react - I know what I said, I don't guess. I help companies on their decisions regarding one design or another. Also I don't speak about isolate cases, I speak about targets - for example probably more than 90% from Ubuntu users (which was not Linux users before) are XP users. I was a happy XP user (or superuser). I was an upset Vista user and finally a pretty happy win7 user too. I still don't see the relation - Win7 is a better windows - ok with that but I implement Ubuntu everywhere around me because I ...and the companies for I changed MS OS to Ubuntu or Ubuntu Server, we see a long term value on the Linux side. It's too complicated to explain you here why the companies think in other way than you or a simply home user. They think big and they take long range decisions when they do such kind of changes. Also - I promoted linux where this make sense, but for my clients from companies, I see that sense in almost every setup and they see that too. The list with specific MS OS things is shorter day by day - you can't find almost all drivers now on linux - but this is an other discussion ...we can talk separately if you like not here. At least as a final advice : please read again and understand in context. I talked about "peoples which will cross from XP to Ubuntu not to win7", I don't say "all peoples will cross from XP to Ubuntu NOT to win7". Take care about nuances. 2009/10/5 Jerry Casiano <jerrycasi...@gmail.com>: > > > On Sun, Oct 4, 2009 at 12:43 PM, SorinN <nemes.so...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> ... >> To gain a new level of perception which is needed for the large mass >> (yep - peoples which will cross from XP to Ubuntu not to win7), >> a whole new look - by default - it's a must. >> ... > > I think you're kidding yourself if you think people who are happy with XP > will choose Ubuntu or any other OS over Windows 7.
