One should also consider the a dual-booter's experience with F-Spot. You may be considering switching to Ubuntu but for any kind of reason you're still stuck using Windows (be it games, or some Windows-only software, etc.). During the years you have amassed an impressive collection of photos that you've carefully organised, categorized, tagged, named, etc. Such collections typically occupy at least a few GB or a few tens of GB. How would you feel if F-Spot demanded importing all those photos by copying the to your 15GB Ubuntu partition? Wouldn't you think F-Spot (or if you're not very techy: Ubuntu) is inferior to your Windows tools? -- . ..: Lucian -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
