Now, Canonical has announced that the Ubuntu Touch Preview will soon be moving beyond the Nexus brand and onto a lot of new Android devices...

I completely agree. I'm gonna give it a try in my Nexus 7 to see what it's like. The more competition the more we win as consumers.

I've heard Linux-people say that about regular Ubuntu also for many years.

How does it look today? :-/

Very good. Ubuntu is highly popular and you even have the choice of getting Ubuntu out of the box when buying a new computer with a couple of major computer companies. The fact that they're moving to the mobile platform says quite a bit about this too.

Well, Ubuntu feels like XP with modern skin and flowing as good as Windows without display drivers. And driver support and OS updates are 10 times worse.

Honestly, I have nothing against Ubunut or any Linux dist but they have a long way to go.

Ps. I love Android, and note WP8

We're each entitled to our opinions but you do make some good points. I'm just glad Steam for Linux came out and is doing well. The lack of games without using WINE or a Windows emulator was my biggest gripe.

I wont touch my wife's Kindle which leave my daughters Nabi as the only other Android Device I could experiment with. I wonder if they will make it available for that. :p Maybe i'll grab a cheap HP Tablet.
