I'm possibly getting a little bit away from the original topic but
I've been wondering why it is that when you install Ubuntu there isn't
a "choice" that asks if you'd like to install the "completely free
version" (read: GNU friendly) like the current default install, or the
"Mostly free version" with non open binaries such as nvidia/ATI
drivers video codecs and other such software that, although are not
open they are legal to use?
