Comment 1318 for bug 1

Why can't Ubuntu local communities create a database of local stores in
their area to guide people interested in Ubuntu. Also we can create a list
of peripherals accepted by the kernel and are sold by these local stores.
This way, we can help fellow Ubuntu users to achieve to "just works" system
off-the-bat. If these information is available online, people can now see
that there's someone local that knows Ubuntu and guide them through by
sharing their experiences.

Sorry for the double post but i just wanted to add that, if ubuntu sells
computers, they would provide the same service as apple, but cheaper,
and with a big "plus": the OS is open.

It means that you can copy it on a "non-ubuntu" computer, modify it on
your on computer if you want, and also that it corrects itself
constantly...

If you have a problem, you can ask canonical and have a customer-seller
relation.
If you want to try a new thing or develop a software, you get the support of
the communauty !

I think a product like that with a good marketing campaign, would have a
great impact, and help solve bug#1.

Don't you ?
