HI Kris, I have had a play with Ubuntu. I also have a Kubuntu disk ready to play around with too.
I have realised that I may have trouble opening existing MS Office docs, mainly Word, some Excel and Access. Also couldn't play my mp3 files, of which I have many via Creative. I presume there are tools to convert formats, so will demo again. I came out of Ubuntu as I couldn't get on line. I will note my ADSL settings via Zoom USB modem, my Turnpike settings for POP3 email, and go in again. Is there a big difference between Kubuntu and Ubuntu? Initial impressions are that there is a bit more thought and input required of the user which I find healthy and stimulating. Windows takes all this away as if I am unable to fathom things out for myself. I also think that a better understanding of Ubuntu et al would lead to a better understanding of computers. Looking forward to unleashing Beryl :-) -- Gregory J Kirby MBA Residential letting Agent www.1sthome.co.uk (The "NO" fees to tenants agency!)
