Please refrain from using the term ‘Geek’ – it’s not big, it’s not clever and it definitely isn’t cool.
Ubuntu is a great O/S and if the ‘ordinary’ people who currently use windows think that Linux is only for ‘geeks’, then they’re less likely to consider using it.
About to listen to my podcasting debut on @uupc. Hopefully not too cringeworthy! http://is.gd/fd6QP
