Some company don't let you do that. There can be some technical ways to
prevent you to do it. And if you are technically able to do it anyway,
you can get fired. So it's not always a smart thing to do.

Actually, I can't replace ubuntu by something else (it's not a technical
issue but a legal one). I can replace gnome and other things by what I
want, but I have to be very careful not to mess with the security in
place on my computer.
