> Canonical dug itself an even deeper hole when it went after [...] FixUbuntu.com for trademark violations.
1. I find it both positive and daunting that the first section of this press release is "They're not being assholes this time". Linux systems should be the guardians of nonspying/noncloud systems.
2. It's excellent they have a theme on stability. I'm not sure how many customers it costs them every year. I personally when to Mac after my second Ubuntu upgrade (1st: the mouse, 2nd: the network).
3. I'd pay $200/yr for a free OS on a developer machine which just works, where I don't even know whether I'm running Gnome, Unity or KDE. I also want UX improvements (the Amazon search) to be well-UX tested (or rejected) before publication. Something like elementary.io, without the installation errors (yeah I've tried), and with on-the-phone magicians if there's a problem. Something like Mac OS X, but paid. I hope they'll do it one day, I wonder whether there's enough customers for that.
