Sounds like a good release party, unfortunately I work evenings so
missed it. I just got home half an hour ago (it's now 01:30).
I am downloading the 8.10 versions of Ubuntu 32/64, Kubuntu 32/64,
Ubuntu Studio 32/64, Mythbuntu 32/64 via bit torrent and will seed them
during my off-peak bandwidt
a lot more seeders. I will try that out too when I

You may well be right. I downloaded Flashplayer 10, however, it was not

Hi,
I'm looking for reccomendations for broadband suppliers and hosting.
