To Alexander (the Great?) above
Bugger you mate.
I feel like expressing an opinion , so I will.
I have found the installing Ubuntu on a computer is faster and easier than a Microsoft product .
I have done 98 frequently, and XP quite a few times , but have now stopped that sort of behaviour .
Done an install of 8.04 on my previous computer , and have done an upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 on my new one.
My nice computer man who installed the new motherboard etc, installed 8.04 even though he had not seen Ubuntu before.
Yes , Ubuntu and Linux are not perfect, but I have no intention of returning to Microsoft .
Peace be with you.
PS. I installed Ubuntu when I was 77. Trying to learn new tricks.
