Then came Corel and I thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. Clean, smooth, effortless install; everything working right out of the box; all the necessary applications; professional look and feel.
Microsoft must have had its eyes on the situation as they immediately bought into Corel. The next thing you knew, Corel was history.
Ubuntu is not nearly as pleasant an experience as Corel was back then, but it just does a lot of the basic stuff right, even though it does leave a lot to be desired in terms of polish, privacy concerns, look-and-feel, usability, openness, etc.
Hopefully, Canonical attends to these issues or someone else takes the helm in improving things.
Why?
We already have a whole bunch of operating systems, many of them free.
One of the frequent problems with a lot of free/open source software folks is that they lack direction. This type of thing where we do stuff just to do stuff probably won't fly in one of the leading tech companies.
Why don't you figure out a real problem people have and look for ways to solve that, instead of just doing random "interesting" stuff that wastes people's valuable time?
That way you get productive immediately with the designer, yet still have the power to fine-tune every detail using the text editor.
You have a right to say whatever you want.
