Beside it sounds really horrible, even this "one of the largest
technology company" is able theme it themeselve.
In large companies nobody installs Ubuntu on his desktop to give it a
try. 
We are speaking from large rollouts, handled and/or supported by one of
the large Linux-companies like SuSE or RedHat.
SuSE and RedHat are not the leading companies in the US and Europe
because they've chosen boring themes, logos, and so on.
Ubuntu's first step is to gain mass-attraction. They can do it with
their unconventional name and a refreshing young appearance.
