Unfortunate Ubuntu media coverage

[Ian Petersen]

This link came through an internal mailing list at work today:

Summary: Lady wants to go back to school, so buys a computer from
Dell.  The sales guy encourages her to choose Ubuntu over Windows.
She discovers Ubuntu "won't work" and drops out of school.

Sounds like user error to me (she claimed that Ubuntu couldn't get on
the net with Verizon), but it's still probably bad press for Ubuntu.
