Ubuntu can do most of what windows can do only faster and for free. Its not impossible to have most programs working under Linux its just that the market isnt flexible enough to change easily. Computer shops, manufacturers, software engineers need to all agree and at the moment they are all in Microsoft's pocket and the only way to force change is to get the public to switch. Its the case of "if you build it they will come" If the public switch the market will switch accordingly. Maybe get the word out there and to do that maybe we need some corporate sponsorship to fund TV adds etc to get the public talking. In my opinion the best way to solve this problem is to make Ubuntu more stable and more usable. If we as a community continue to support Ubuntu and help in any way we can, we can bring software into the 21st century and stop Microsoft from halting innovation by keeping computing locked in a monopoly. Maybe then we will have some real choice but at the moment this is only a dream of our entire community.
