Thanks Ernest. If I could get the freakin’ Ubuntu distro to install on any of the machines I’ve got around here, I might try this new one. ;’)

Curious. What can I do with Ubuntu? I have a Mac with Safari and it also has Win XP with IE and Safari. Should I bother to play with Ubuntu? Would it work on an old laptop currently running Win ME?
