Hi Paul,

I was actually reading an artical on the ubuntu website  saying that the 
latest versions of Ubuntu need 128meg to run. There was a thread leading off 
that that suggested another version ubuntu that wasnt so bulky...
The jist of the conversation was that Ubuntu is meant so everyone can use it.. 
but because of the way machines have progressed its outgrown that initial 
phase it did say something about people in 3rd world countries having pcs of 
a P3 with 32-64meg ram and 4gig harddisks.. now has Ubuntu outgrown its 
original project of supply it to the people who cant afford the new spec pcs. 
I think so.....

I am not really an ubuntu fan anyway... 

Dave
