Well they sure as shit didn't pick cheap. $400 million? Haven't seen good yet. And it was not fast at the beginning. So a trifecta of fail!
Must Acquire Dictionary...
Actually, must fix spell check. It has been doing some odd corrections lately.
Yeah, but Ubuntu is not Linux, they have chosen their own road. Mir versus Wayland is a prime example of the NIH syndrome trap they have fallen into.
Linux is a kernal, and Ubuntu uses it, so yes, Ubuntu is Linux. As for Mir, they are putting that off a bit longer, thankfully. Yes, they seem to have gone a bit nuts lately. But it doesn't change the fact that they have a viable stratagy of desktop / phone / tablet that is consistant accross all platforms.
There are only a hand full of free to play games from steam for linux. It is kinda weird.
Man... This store doesn't have a lot of free stuff...

There's no game that would cause me to format my hard drive and wipe out the applications that have already led me to install Windows.
Linux users have been dual booting to play games for years. Turnabout would actually be kind of amusing!
What we need is some serious effort into platform integration between desktop, tablet and cellphone. Apple offers, Microsoft wants to offer it. Why don't we have it with Linux/Android?
I guess you missed that whole Ubuntu Phone thing, huh?
Many people are unenthusiastic about their work.
