Default Theme

[Hudson Delbert J Contr 61 CS/SCBN]

easy fix for ubuntu folks.

enterprise version and personal version.
one with stuff for business,,,,the other 'all bets are off'...where's the
problem
everybody gets what they want a functional ubuntu distro that is pc where
needed
and the other allows growth and exploration of imagination and inclinations.

Yes, it's an extremely bad choice as a default splashscreen. Looks more
like an aftershave advert than a serious Linux desktop. Inappropriate in
almost any setting.
The first thing my girlfriend said was "Why have you got those naked
women on your computer" in a not-too-happy voice.
