wow, how could the people who made the great Ubuntu make such a terrible  
online store?
all I wanted to do was see what they had to offer, but was forced to  
log-on before even getting to see the store.
Then I was redirected at least 10 times through the same openID process,  
and even though I signed in with my launchpad details from the start, it  
still wasn't enough, i couldn't get to see a T-shirt without having to  
complete a longwinded full-address sign-in for another new user's account  
on the store site again...
And all those security best-practice guidelines have been well ignored in  
this store. Errors like "Authentication failed. Server reported: Nonce  
already used or out of range" give way too much info away.
In the end I gave up, I'l stick with a mug from my local Ubuntu user's  
group.
