Canonical hopes Best Buy Ubuntu will spur Linux adoption
- jm4 18y agoIt would be nice, but I doubt it will make a difference. Anyone else here remember when Best Buy used to sell Linux several years ago? They carried quite a few distros - Red Hat, SuSE, Caldera and maybe even a couple others. CompUSA sold Linux back then too. It doesn't hurt to have it in the store, but I really wonder how many people go to a store to buy any operating system. But who knows? Maybe it will be different this time. Ubuntu is much more user friendly than what was available a few years ago.
