Mad Penguin review

Hello,

I am inclined to agree that the reviewer might have written the review after 
a fight with his wife or something, the aggressiveness shows that.

However, the reviewer has put forward all the bad points of ubuntu -- worse 
being the name. I fully agree that ubuntu must choose better names .. I 
mean, imagine, a conversation in office using "Vista" and "dapper drake" . 

I am not targeting at ubuntu, "heidelberg" and "tettnang" similarly 
ridiculous names, but if ubuntu wants to enter the enterprise market, it 
must give a serious thought to the naming scheme.

My 2 cents.

Rohan.
