Sorry about work.  The main reason for choosing Ubunto is that the version
that Phil has ships with all the accessability software that I need being
visually impaired.  I know that I can get any Gnome based distro and get the
relevant add ins but at heart I am a lazy so and so, and apart from which it
has had and is still getting good feedback within the accessability
community.

I will let you know about your offer - it all depends on Phil, and when I
can get time to myself.

Cheers

Ian

Ouch. Sorry about you losing your job. That sucks.

As for me, Mandrake never seemed to have the monitor support Ubuntu has,
and it always seemed to have problems with it's updating software.
