Yup. Nothing makes an old box seem new like a fresh install of Ubuntu.

Hi Peter How stupid can one be? Why upgrade a four year old machine? What did this "sucker for technology" really expect? As I always tell: leave that old hardware as is. Buy a new machine that can handle your present needs. And keep the old for a spare, for something else (like a Linux server where it would scream), or give it to charity. Now this stupido bought new hardware and a bunch of troubles and wasn't even happy. /gustav >>> peter.brawley at earthlink.net 02-03-2007 17:59 >>> Is this <http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/6407419.stm> representative of the Vista upgrade experience ?
