Idea: Drop-In Replacement in Software Center

[peyre]

Oftentimes people (esp. Windows converts) are looking for replacements for specific apps: Adobe Acrobat, Photoshop, etc. Maybe the Ubuntu Software Center could have a Drop-In Replacement section which would suggest replacement software for those apps. I know there are Web sites that give lists of such suggestions, but the Software Center would be a nice easy place for people to go to find this stuff, especially if you could click there to install the suggested app(s).

Hi peyre.

You can put your idea at ubuntu brainstorm.

I think it is good, but there are no promises.

Hey, good idea!! I thought about posting a question where to leave enhancement requests, since I didn't see a category for them. I'll post it over there.
