When it comes out at the end of the month, download the iso, burn it and
try it. Even in beta Hardy is much better at detecting & configuring
hardware than Gutsy.

But why limit yourself to just Ubuntu. There are some distros out right
now that do a very good job with detection hardware. For my computer
PCLOS Gnome and OpenSuse worked very well.

Go to [url]http://distrowatch.com/[/url] and try a bunch of LiveCD distros and see
which one works the best for you.

Only three weeks to go before it's Independence Day for Alias. Imagine
another release of the TOY OS they call Ubuntu. It is so screwed up, they
have to keep making major releases every 6 months. I guess they just can't
get it right.

Ubuntu is a FREE product that NOBODY wants. Go figure. Just think. Alias
is their Marketing Department.

It's called leading edge INNOVATION Wintard. Of course, being a Windoze user
that has to wait 6 years between upgrades, it's no wonder you are unable to
understand this stuff.

People with brains and intelligence want Ubuntu. Clueless idiots like you
who think Vista is a real operating system, don't deserve to run a superior
OS like Ubuntu.

Cheers.

And to think MS can't even develop a Service Pack in 6 months! Wow!

Open Source, Open Marketing.

Think of Operation Systems in political terms. Linux is a grass roots
movement, and Windows is the Belt-way insider. And Apple is the

It anything but INNOVATION. Imagine, working on a POS product for 30+ years
and all they can come up with is a bunch of garbage? Ubuntu is just a toy
for geeks and pimply headed kids who can't even get a date. Oh yea, and
shut-ins like Alias who think they run 3 companies when in fact they are in
an institution.

Thanks! You've proved my point. Wintards have NO idea what innovation even
looks like.

Cheers.

Yes I can imagine that, and I think I'm starting to see its name.

Yep, its name is Vista!

Actually, Ubuntu is geared more to the average PC user. Most "geeks"
would more than likely use another distro like Slack or Gentoo.

What kind of "institution?" And institution of higher learning?

Alias is continuing to learn a new way of computing, while you gave up
in frustration after only a couple of days.

I'm sorry, but I respect Alias much more than you, as at least Alias has
the perseverance to improve his computing knowledge, while all you do is
put him down for what you cannot and/or are too unwilling do for yourself.

How could they, when the only example of innovation they have is the
unethical business practice of polishing the same old turd to sell as a
new product.

So it's perfect. You use Ubuntu and go over to the Ubuntu group and help
them out. I will continue to use Windows solutions and we will all be
happy.

Precisely. I guess Mr. Yawn, after not being able to figure out Ubuntu,
needs to cry soar grapes and slam Ubuntu at every opportunity he gets.
Pretty pathetic.

LOL! With your logic, you should be using DOS as all the upgrades all
the way to Vista is Microsoft not being to "get it right".

Something that's not sold doesn't have a marketing department but we all
know how well you do when you "go figure".

You don't understand (again), we want to promote Ubuntu to the hapless
Vista users who are sick of Microsoft's intrusive tactics, viruses and
malware. It's a noble cause, something about which you obviously know
nothing.
