WRONG BEHAVIOR?

What the HELL kind of Ubuntu support person would ever say that
behavior which is "neither Windows-like nor Mac-like" is WRONG? That's
why a lot of people PREFER Linux! It's NOT a proprietary, locked-in
system with no capabilities to allow the user to do ANYTHING except
for blindly listening to iTunes and watching iPhoto slideshows.

Also

> no MS Office

You can LEAVE, sir.

I understand fully that Ubuntu is no Windows clone, but Ubuntu is what
the guy's asking for! We can't turn him away, especially to Windows or
Mac.

Microsoft does half the work that Open Source developers do, and they
get all the money. Where's the justice there?

How well does iTunes work under wine? With iPod touch specifically?  -
