Description Julian Ospald 2013-01-12 00:23:10 UTC
Ubuntu is trying to take over.


This bug is widely evident in the PC industry.

Steps to repeat:
    1. Visit Ubuntu homepage.
    2. Try to download and set up a system without bloat and tons of precompiled software.
    3. Try to configure the system to your own needs.

What happens:
You fail miserably. Just like Larry... before he discovered Gentoo.

What should happen:
People should be aware again of what Linux and free software is.
