Many Linux trolls have problems seeing Canonical, a normal, for-profit company having any business secret and/or using diplomatic language. Their heads are full of FUDs and conspiracy theories. They prefer to pull down Canonical rather than Microsoft.

Canonical started out with a somewhat different vision. Microsoft did not.
This is not trolling. It's disappointment.

Indeed. They went and closed bug #1, reflecting the situation on the ground in such an accurate fashion that when I had reason to go and purchase a computer in a retail outlet the other day there was a healthy choice of software pre-installed on the available models.
Just kidding, of course: there was a row of Macbooks and everything else was running Windows 8. Canonical's "mission accomplished" moment, without a doubt.
