| adom | hey marcoceppi, I was wondering something...you mentioned how Ubuntu likes you Canonical employees to use the latest distros, do they also prefer you to use Unity? | 16:23 |
| adom | Like, if you decided to use cairo-dock or fluxbox or something else, would they be unhappy? | 16:24 |
| adom | just curious | 16:24 |
| marcoceppi | adom: we're "mandated" to use the latest development release, but we can use whatever operating system/DE we like. I know a few who run KDE and others who customize everything | 16:25 |
| marcoceppi | it depends on the team you're on. The desktop/community team area almost always running unit/ubuntu+1 from the get go. Typically around beta1/beta2 most of the other tech teams move to saucy to provide feedback and testing | 16:26 |
| adom | you're supposed to use the latest dev release, but you can use a different OS? don't think I understand your wording. could you clarify? | 16:27 |
| adom | please and thanks | 16:27 |
| marcoceppi | adom: check pm | 16:48 |
| adom | got it thanks | 16:58 |
| ChinnoDog | marcoceppi: The other day you mentioned that Ubuntu laptops are hot items in foreign markets. Which ones? How much market share? | 19:03 |
| marcoceppi | India and China iirc. not sure market share | 20:55 |
| marcoceppi | adom: ChinnoDog more information on the release date for Solaptop https://plus.google.com/109344265064351301756/posts/1F8DG57aBUy | 21:48 |
| ChinnoDog | interesting | 23:39 |
| ChinnoDog | What is the cheapest Ubuntu laptop out there? I got the IT guy at work interested in Ubuntu today while showing him how to issue the secure erase command on a hard disk. He commented that it must require special hardware, to which my response that commodity hardware usually works best didn't seem to help much. | 23:49 |
| ChinnoDog | Would be cool if I could point noobs to a cheap piece of hardware for learning Ubuntu. | 23:49 |
