Who's got Shop?!

Now that even Windows Mobile has a App Store, it almost comes with no surprise that the new, soon to be released Ubuntu Karmic Koala, has one:




I must say, this is the first time I see a desktop operating system with this feature.
Or NOT, after all what is apt-get? Well, even Synaptic Package Manager wasn't very user friendly...
Making the system provide a group of supported applications always been the "linux way" of installing new programs, these being on official repositories, gives the users some comfort security wise. If the program is not in the repositories... then you're out of luck.
So, not really anything new to us geeks, we'll still be droping to the terminal to install our applications... But is still nice to show of this new feature.
