[04:28] joke!!! [04:28] :P [04:28] sheesh [04:28] Hey now, plastic surgery has done a lot for me =( [04:28] ROFL [04:30] :) [04:31] so, the not referring to linux thing, that works.... [04:31] when talking about ubuntu, I mean. [04:32] I think that that will be a good way to market Ubuntu. [04:44] yup [04:45] besides... I always disliked the callingf of an os linux... maybe I'm just anal.. but the last time I chcked linux was the kernel :P [04:47] What i'm wondering, is if it would be possible to start a 'switch' campaign of our own... [04:47] The testimonials are practically done already [04:47] I can't remember the names but apparently two very big mac users did the switch to ubuntu. [04:48] cool [04:49] that would be a good sales pitch [04:49] I'll have to look up the links, but it seems to me we could do a testimonial based 'switch' campaign. [04:49] although a different name would have to be thought up [04:49] now if only we could convince bill gates to switch to ubuntu ;) [04:50] haha [04:50] he'll use windows until he dies [04:50] he'll be buried with a windows computer... which I think it's significant that the windows computer is also buried with him. === gaz00 [n=gaz00@S01060015e96c00db.cg.shawcable.net] has joined #ubuntu-marketing [04:51] lol [04:52] hah.

I just can't find anything out about it =\ [11:36] The only thing I have to go on is that Mark Shuttleworth bought 65% stake of Impi Linux and that canonical itself is offering commercial repos for ubuntu. [11:36] aside from that it's merely speculation... [11:38] =\ [11:45] that's some mighty dangerous thinking there adamant1988... [11:51] I think it's exciting personally [11:51] it means I might be able to buy Ubuntu in a box and give my family a boxed set with a written manual and support for the things they use oob.
