Ubuntu Leader Praises Windows, Wants its Customers
,----[ Quote ]
| Mark Shuttleworth, leader of the Ubuntu development community, offers kind
| words for Microsoft's Windows - - but sounds more like someone who is
| plotting to steal customers away from the Windows platform.
|
| In a blog item titled, "Playing nicely with Windows," Shuttleworth calls
| Windows "an important platform," and then praises an open-source application
| called WUBI that allows Ubuntu to be installed onto a Windows PC. What makes
| WUBI different than other technology is that, instead of creating a virtual
| machine or installing Ubuntu into a partition, it installs the Linux OS into
| a file on the PC.
