Canonical and Ubuntu miss the boat by making 'Unity' their flagship,
daring to embed ads in the search [like microsoft's adware in W10], and
so on.  I like ubu's cutting edge packages, but I don't like the
defaults at *ALL* [gnome 3 and unity stink].  But switch to Mate, and
everything seems ok.  VERY easy to work with.

it might ALSO be worth pointing out that Linspire's big mistake was the
use of subscriptions, something Microsoft seems to be moving TOWARDS...
