I see no problem with this. In fact it'd be interesting to know how many people are using Ubuntu. If Canonical could make the overall numbers per region/Ubuntu version public (keeping private the gritty details of course) it would give the world a look into the growing popularity of Linux and specifically Ubuntu. It could help Windows people who's feeling adventurous make the decision on whether or not to try Linux. Knowing how many people are using Ubuntu could help assure them there's a lot of support out there if they run into problems.

...but it will bulge so much that it's going to swallow up Venus, and possibly Earth, anyways....

In fact, it's likely to swallow up even Mars, and get fairly close to Jupiter's orbit. But billions of years from now when this happens we'll have either killed ourselves off, or figured out interstellar travel, so it's moot either way.

It works for two people, or can show a different 2-D display for up to 4 people. So it's useless as a 3-D display if you have a party over watching the game, or if the whole family is watching movies. It's a great display for loners, sucks for anyone else.
