Comment on Why an Ubuntu Tablet Won’t Sell by Edward Meeker

I am ready to buy this sucker, and once there is a version to run on my current tablet, I will convert it. I currenly have a laptop where I almost never run anything but Kubuntu. With this experience, I suspect that the statements above indicate that the author has no real familarity with it or Ubuntu. Most applications run very well and I have not speant a fortune to run any of them. The Ubuntu spoken of is really one from years ago. The last install was completely seemless and works better, faster and cheaper than any OS produced by either Apple or Microsoft. I’ve been able to revive a couple of older machines, that now run as well as new. As far as applications go, my experience in using any system, tells me that bad applications are everywhere. I know the first version may be a little rough, but has anyone noticed that both the Android and Apple tablets are still running what are basically phone apps or how many of these apps are just junk?

I am a computer tech and I have been so since DOS. I can clearly say that Ubuntu Tablets will be dynamite. It’s only a matter of time before open source takes over (Look at the success of Firefox and Chrome. Also, the rising success of Android) I posted on here last year. Please do not delete my post again.
