Comment 178 for bug 269656

When I try present Ubuntu to a new user, the only software he actually recognizes in the menu is Firefox, to remove that just for a irrelevant EULA is madness. People expect to have Firefox there, it's a very basic and well known internet browser and the first software a new user fires up to browse the web and google the names of all the other programs installed which he doesn't know!

From a different perspective, if you are not a new user to Ubuntu or don't agree with the EULA, you don't have to agree with it, you can remove it and use Epiphany or Iceweasel, it's a few clicks away for someone who knows Ubuntu already. For a new user, figuring out how to install firefox on Ubuntu without a web browser to start with and google it, will be difficult (the user will never know that Epiphany or Iceweasel are in fact web browsers!).

Let's just figure out a better way to present the EULA, I vote for adding it on the same page that opens up when you first install Firefox 3 (there is a presentation page with nice graphics) and not in an extra Tab.
