Not all that surprising -- Phone/Touch never took off. Killing Unity is a
surprise, and I like the UI, but understandable. There was just too much of a
disconnect from the community.
I still believe in convergence, but I don't pretend to know how it's going to
happen (I'm hoping my next-gen Psi
Probably not, other than the lack of a license, £50 cheaper, and terrible
support on anything other than the shipped release.
Typed on an XPS Ubuntu edition which has never worked well under anything after
12.04.

So. I have a LOT of phones. For my 'testing'. The list is below, but the end
result is that I'm using an iPhone 6 now (mostly for the vertical in-house IT
stack that Apple provides, and testing my new IOS app). I 'upgraded' from a
Nexus 5 running CM. My favourite phone of all time is still the N

Hey folks --
I've been thinking about this for a while. As someone who used to work
on Apple higher education marketing and a big fan of Guy Kawasaki, I
think there are a lot of things that are possible.
Probably we are talking about two things:
1) Advocacy/marketing to possible new users.

Just FYI, like a lot of other people, I bought a Dell with Ubuntu
pre-loaded. In my case, it's the Sputnik 3 (XPS 13 9333) 'Enterprise'

It shipped with a Dell-approved build of 12.04, which worked well
enough, but had a funky boot process during which it was pretty m

First time joining up for the RAT! Looking forward to it. What time does
everyone intend to meet up at Alton? Meeting at Farnham first is a nice
idea, but I don't think I can make it.
It'll be nice to put some faces to the names on the list.

Hi all -
I've been a happy user of O2 broadband for years, but now that Murdoch has laid
his hands on it, I want to change provider.
Does anyone have a recommendation? I used to have BT, and they were mostly
useless. There is a bit of bittorent going on, so I'm looking for an uncapped

So, the tablets announcement wasn't really surprising, but it did raise a
