Wow. So here I am, taking a look at my own site when I see an advertisement appear on the right-hand side that shows someone selling Ubuntu for money:

Hold up a second. This is just sick and wrong!

Apparently there is a new generation of eBayers that are feeding on those that are fed up with Windows. Here’s a screen shot of the auction:

So, this person is charging $3.90 plus $6.90 shipping (that’s $10.80) to give you something you can get for free just by packaging it with some screen shots? That just seems wrong. I am surprised that eBay allows this kind of behavior on their website.

Not only that, but check out where it is listed:

That’s right: under ‘Windows XP Professional‘.

It’s a straight up scam.

If you want a free operating system shipped to you, they are out there for everyone and easy to get.

Here’s a link to the auction in question:
UBUNTU LINUX 7.10 OPERATING SYSTEM STABLE & EASY TO USE

Sheesh.
