Hi John,
I am sorry, but I have not been able to install 12.04 I am working on it now on
a school computer :L and hopefully this time the boot disk will actually work.
after that, it shouldn't be too long until I can get a first draft of my
chapter written and uploaded.
It would be good to use arrows to point out buttons in a menu. I meant an
orangey-red colour, not ubuntu orange per se, but rather just an orange-red. I
agree, using the pure ubuntu orange would be suicidal.

I think that this is a legacy from GNOME legacy (when there was a
'panel' top and bottom) that we haven't weeded out yet, maybe.
I'm not sure what the Ubuntu developers refer to it as.
