    Well whatever they did under the surface has worked well.
    I was using Ubuntu for a while but it got annoying when the battery went flat within an hour I don't know if there is a fix for that yet, but it's a common complaint, I know, I read many forum posts about it.
    I no longer monitor the forum, please either post your question or create a support ticket.

    Interesting to know about battery life, my "new" laptop (aka like 16 mo old now) has gone from 3.5hrs of battery watching movies down to about 45mins... Not too happy about that, probably going to build a solid desktop this summer and if Im really missing the portability of a laptop buy a good netbook.

    Thinking of moving my old desktop to dual-boot Win XP Pro (already on there) and either Ubuntu or Lubuntu. Lubuntu uses the Xfce desktop instead of GNOME, seems to be a little quicker running in VirtualBox where Ive been testing Ubuntu vs Kubuntu vs Lubuntu.
