[Nottingham] misc: ubuntu, lugradio

[Michael Erskine]

Hi all,

I downloaded Ubuntu Warty yesterday and installed it on one of our broken 
laptops (dead screen) and it just worked! I'm showing off the Gnome desktop 
to other engineers in our Nottingham office (I'm currently a KDE user). 
Unless I hit some major problems, this will be my new shortcut route to a 
debian desktop install (previously was a Knoppix HDD install) and I might 
just start using it on my own workstations (currently Sarge with KDE, 
Kontact, etc).

On another note: I'm finding it hard to concentrate on work because I'm 
listening to the entire back-catalog of lugradio (thanks to Robert Postill 
for the pointer last week). I listened to all of series two first and now I'm 
up to episode 4 of the first series. I'll be putting them on a CD (the ogg 
high quality versions) and I'll bring a few copies to the next meeting. Put 
in your orders!

Regards,
Michael
