I have a certain amount of sympathy with the idea that they don't just want to 
be blindly following Windows and Mac but want to be doing something new and 
innovative in the desktop space, and with the idea that if you're trying to 
innovate you have to try things and be willing to make mistakes and learn from 
them.

I think the problem with Ubuntu is that they're so attracted by the new and 
shiny that they can't actually tell *when* they're making mistakes, and hence 
can't learn from them.
