I wonder if they would have reacted if someone - umm - more - (trying to be tactful) - less experienced* than yourself had asked the same thing. I think the shop (and manager) is worthy of praise. Maybe a letter to head office explaining what you did, and how helpful he was to you, and how much this influenced your buying decision. You don't have to spend your money in their store after all, and if they realise that this is a valuable service.. you never know, some store might end up with a demo PC some day that anyone can chuck an ubuntu CD/Stick in and test. Even better, maybe one day they'll sell PCs with Ubuntu preloaded, and have vast amounts of clue with which to baffle _you_ with. Meanwhile back on planet earth, a letter would be grand :) Cheers, Al. * for experienced, read old :) -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
