[HLUG] Mention of us in LInux Format

[dicegeorge at hotmail dot com]

I'm sticking to ubuntu 10.04.

several people at
   http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ubuntulinux/
have complained about unity,
its too clever for its own good,
its hard to do 2 things at the same time,or something like that,
i havnt the time to learn fancy new interfaces,
if i wanted that i'd get a mac or windows 7"

I like to drag and drop etc like i'v been doing since windows 3.?
