You know, I love Ubuntu. It is amazing. It is growing, and becoming better and better with every release. It is modern, and will continue to grow because of how modern it is. The Software Center has grown by leaps and bounds. :D Keep going Mark!

These keynotes seem to become more professional each year, I really hope Ubuntu and Canonical continue to do well and focus on the long term.

Every time I want to access System Settings, I accidentally open the user menu. Great usability -- NOT. And why do I have to TYPE shit into the dash or the HUD for every little thing? I want to use my MOUSE. I don't want to put my hands on the keyboard.

In 12.04 the ATI drivers still aren't working properly... This is basic stuff and it still is a pain in the butt for those of us who need to make that work before we can do anything else with the OS. Still screwed up, though. :) JC

The best way to work with packages is either via the terminal or the Synaptic Package Manager. Ubuntu Software Center sucks omho for it doesn't give you enough information (no information at all actually only the installation progress) about what's going on behind the curtain. Removing SPM as a default package manager is a mistake. If it disappears from the repositories, this will be one more good reason to leave the Ubuntu world. As for the Unity - boy, I wouldn't use it even if I get paid.

A while ago a lot of people tried linux before it had any drivers or fancy GUI's or any codecs. It wasn't up to par with windows at the time - in fact it paled in comparison. When it was presented to these folks it was presented as 'linux' and not as the distribution. Most people considered it terrifying to have to go into the command line to install everything and the constant breaking gave people headaches. When those people see 'linux' now they instantly remember that experience :(

I worry about Ubuntu Mobile, from Ubuntu history they never were great in implementing a great user interface... I hope it will change...

I wish we could get this with some decent audio. This is just too straining to listen to, even tho I'd love to hear what he said.
