>> Bug description:
>>   Microsoft has a majority market share in the new desktop PC marketplace.
>>   This is a bug, which Ubuntu is designed to fix.
>>
>>   Non-free software is holding back innovation in the IT industry,
>>   restricting access to IT to a small part of the world's population and
>>   limiting the ability of software developers to reach their full
>>   potential, globally. This bug is widely evident in the PC industry.
>>
>>   Steps to repeat:
>>
>>   1. Visit a local PC store.
>>
>>   What happens:
>>   2. Observe that a majority of PCs for sale have non-free software
>> pre-installed.
>>   3. Observe very few PCs with Ubuntu and free software pre-installed.
>>
>>   What should happen:
>>   1. A majority of the PCs for sale should include only free software like
>> Ubuntu.
>>   2. Ubuntu should be marketed in a way such that its amazing features and
>> benefits would be apparent and known by all.
>>   3. The system shall become more and more user friendly as time passes.
