[Bug 1] Re: Microsoft has a majority market share

[David Vasta]

Agafonov -

Nice little tid bit of info. I like it.

Only one problem. Maybe all the Windows users are using Microsoft Live
not and not Google since it's so good....LOL.

I am kidding. I think we are winning the battle. I do small PC work on
the side and have had to help people with Vista. Let me say. Not my
favorite OS, never was, but it's pretty sad. So these people with Vista
are not liking it much either. They all want to move back 6 years to XP.
So I ask them what they use their computer for. These people are not
power users, they are just people at home with a laptop or desktop. Most
of them say Email. Web, Photos, and some light office task. Bingo.
Ubuntu is in. Out of the last 7 - 10 Vista users I have converted 2
people to Ubuntu. I think that's a good start and I have two others who
are thinking about it. I think if they have to pay me another $50 to
come show them how to do something they used to know how to do in XP
it's going to kill them. I told them as well, Ubuntu support from me is
free. While I charge $50 an hour for Windows support, I do not charge
anything for Linux or MacOSX support. I do have my limits but I am
willing to take one for the team in order to help people just use their
computers not fight with them.

I would encourage all of you to do this if you make some scratch helping
people with PCs. While I know the Ubuntu and MacOSX because I want to, I
think people should have to pay for the information I retain because it
helps pay the bills and it is just bad karma owning something that does
not work.

That is enough Blah Blah Blah from me. Long live Ubuntu. Help everyone
for FREE and spread the love.
