I understand what you mean, good post!
But the IT magazines I've read that has written about Ubuntu, focus very much on how user friendly the distro is. And to a normal windows-user, Linux is not very user friendly.
If a total Linux newb is going to try Linux, he needs something easy to start with. And Ubuntu is probably the most user friendly distro to start with for a user that never tried Linux before, so it's natural that they talk about it. But I agree that Linux should not be left in the shadow, of course. People should be told that Linux is the operating system and that there are other just-as-good distros. And they should know that they're using Debian and so on, and that they can use gnome on e.g. Mandriva.
But I think (and hope) that if a user starts with Ubuntu and likes it, he will eventually try out the other distros. (I still use Ubuntu myself, though)
And I totally agree that canonical should at least put the Linux logo on the home page, as should every distro. |

- How could Canonical ever become Microsoft 2.0 when they don't earn any money on Ubuntu? (Except from support calls, but most use the forums for info anyway). It's still open source, it's still Linux! |
