There is absolutely nothing wrong with my KDE...: desktop. Shuttleworth is an idiot. It is killing him because Linux, Ubuntu in particular is not taking off. But it has nothing to do with the desktop.

There are no applications that I need to run ported for Linux. And no one markets Linux.

He needs to get a clue.; Posted by: bjbrock Posted on: 09/12/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
