This is very insightful. The newbie market will never come to Ubuntu
unless someone brings them here, and if the technical people that do
that are not happy... (Yes, I still find Unity to get in the way of how
I work, and am still on 10.04)

For example, I only buy an recommend printers that are supported in
Linux. I may only buy one printer, but my Mother bought one, and a few
friends, people at work, and so on. Guess who they asked what printer
to buy?
