Oh, absolutely, yes. But for all that it's shiny and pretty, and its wizards and help and things might assist many technophobic beginners, it's big, heavyweight, slow, and relatively expensive. It's also not particularly secure - it's actually a step backwards compared to Vista. There is a chance for Linux, but it's a very tough battle ahead. Unfortunately, I think the bad experiences of hundreds of thousands of people with Linux netbooks will put them off for a long time to come. -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • GMail/GoogleTalk/Orkut: lpro...@gmail.com Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 • Cell: +44 7939-087884 • Fax: + 44 870-9151419 AOL/AIM/iChat/Yahoo/Skype: liamproven • LiveJournal/Twitter: lproven MSN: lpro...@hotmail.com • ICQ: 73187508 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
