This is a start of going the M$ ways. Maybe it's time to upgrade to Debian. I am a software developer. Why would I want to contribute to open source free software to Ubuntu when it has contributed to me commercialism. It may not be much, but down the road it could lead to more and more commercial software for Ubuntu. This is a noob distro anyways. I might as well switch to a distro a little more involved in learning. Then Canonical can redefine their slogan "Ubuntu will always be free of charge" to not include "premium ubuntu software", and soon the remove the forget the slogan at all. Did Canonical forget where Ubuntu came from? Debian and derivatives made from it have been an alternative to Redhat. Or Ubuntu could become like Fedora, test Subversion development software for bug reports to better their commercial Linux Redhat software. Upgrade to Premium? This is a start of going the M$ ways.

Unfortunately he's not on Ubuntu, nor is anyone else I might want to share with. I can't see it being of use to me until it possible for Windows users to access it.

I use Dropbox and the cross platform support I don't need, although I have it installed on my iPod Touch which is handy. Nevertheless, cross platform support is going to increase the take up. But in the short term it makes sense to make it robust and feature unique for Ubuntu machines first. It's early days yet and once they get the foundation sorted out, the features and support for other platforms will come.
