Comment 625 for bug 1

Here in Sri Lanka the story goes the same. Most of the PCs and Laptops are sold with Windows pre-installed. Although these machines come with also antivirus software, they are much prune to attacks. I bought an Asus laptop with a clean hard disk as I needed Ubuntu on it. But the general user prefers a pre-installation. Sri Lanka is a developing country. People in this small country should not make microsoft rich. They should not get used to pirated software even, when they have the ability to embrace the freedom of software.

* We need to make computer hardware agents/resellers/buyers understand the true story of software.
