Will Ubuntu’s new look bring in the masses?

,----[ Quote ]
| With Ubuntu 10.4, codenamed Lucid Lynx, 
| Ubuntu will change its look completely. 
| Everything will be brand new; the logo, 
| the user interface, and the color scheme 
| (no more brown). It’s set to be released 
| on April 29, less than a month away.
| 
| We are very curious to see if this 
| makeover will give Ubuntu a boost in 
| popularity. It’s already the most popular 
| desktop Linux distribution, but will this 
| new look, this new branding, make it 
| easier for Ubuntu to cast its net even 
| wider and grow the Linux user base as a 
| whole?

Get ready to supercharge those netbooks with Ubuntu 10.04

| Guess what? After using just the first beta

| is this free, but it feels just as fast (if
| not faster) than Windows 7. This is seat-
| of-the-pants only, but let’s just say that
| it’s a significant upgrade from XP Home.

Epic fail.....

But then again Linux seems to attract fossil types like Jeddiah so
maybe it's a good idea.

And you actually believe that they will release audio tapes as a free
download on April 29th?

Maybe they don't aim at the PMP generation.

    Repeating a lie doesn't make it any more true.

    I dumped physical audio media in the last millenium.
