@yibo mentioned the meaning of "ubuntu": it actually means "humanity towards
others" in English, or simply "仁" in Chinese. "Others" here does not exclude
people/companies you don't like.

Anyway, Ubuntu is not just released for CS guys to use. Ordinary PC users
tend to use Baidu a lot (though Linux users here usually use Google).

Adding Baidu is obvious helpful for expanding the influence of Ubuntu on
desktop area considering the wide use of Baidu in China. But making it the
default one is not acceptable, Baidu is evil, we all know it.

> Baidu is the leading search engine in China (
http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE63R5YM20100429) and growing given
Google's departure from China. It will return results that are more targeted
and relevant to users based in China.

If you type something in (>= 4 chars) and later backspace, you'll see the
cached suggestion results that FF received. Not sure if I did something
wrong or if it's just slow.

> Baidu told OEM Services that their name is natively spelled 百度一下 so I used
that. Baidu's site is not translated into English, so I don't see a
compelling reason for the name to be the Englishy "Baidu" instead of what a
native speaker would presumably prefer.
