Firstly how cute that they are Imarketing something that has been around for decades.
Secondly, hack just by looking, I can believe that as apparently users can break computers just by looking at them. " I didn't do touch anything" , " I don't know how that software got installed" and my favourite " no I didn't spill any coffee on the keyboard" as I pure a cup of latte out of it.
Having visited the IP Expo on Wednesday I have to say I'm very disappointed with how companies behaved. It seemed that only the pretty ones in the sales team were allowed out and made to wear the shorted/tightest skirts they could find. For any women looking to work in IT its a bad example and I can see that mentality being applied to the pay. Too the naughty step IT industry.
Not a single problem here.. Dell D830 works like a treat and its much better. HD access quicker and streaming video to another is machine very smooth (which it wasn't with Jaunty). For me its fixed a lot of the niggles that I had with Jaunty.
As for the install process. I clicked the network upgrade option and came back 30 minutes later, all done!
I wouldn't put it past MS to post a extra problems to make Ubuntu look bad.
I can't wait to see what twats (O)2 do with this....

Joe " I don't get 1 GB/sec rate infact I appear to be getting 28000 Baud! "
02 lieing git " Yep thats how much you really want, its a technical error, loads of other poeple are fine ( <- that would be 1 person, his gran in peckham), you're wrong. now sod off you nerdy git! PLUS I can drink Bill Ray under the table!!! and beat him in thumb wrestling!!! AND if you call me a liar then it will help me get into PR.
The last bit might be going to far but you get the jist.
A : Spokeswoman Doreen Graham explained that "many of them could be in shock and may die".
Erm. weren't they on the way to the slaughter house, so what does it matter.
B: Bloke on phone to Wife "Darling I'm going to be a bit late the traffic is foul today"
Yes, yes ..
Mine is the full length leather coat,
"For one, Microsoft can tweak its operating system to deliver the best possible Windows virtualization experience. You should expect Microsoft's own hypervisor to surpass rivals' software when performing basic slicing of Windows Server."
I'm sorry but that's just funny... They must have wet themselves with laughter when they came up with that one.
Nothing in the past 10 years of working with MS products has made me think that would ever happen.
Their idea of optimization is "must use as much RAM and CPU as we can get away with "
"You never know, in years to come, the a candlelit dinner for two might not be considered complete until the man produces a bunch of tropical arachnids and some crotchless panties for his lady friend."
LOL!.. the thing is most of my girlfriends freak if there is a tiny house spider somewhere within a 5 mile radius, thier reaction to a bunch of topical arachnids all in crotchless panites doesn't bare thinking about. What with all the running around in circles and the screaming.
