None, I have never used a messenger application. Not once ever.

Nothing.

Hasn't had a full release for nearly three years.

Nothing, it's not superior.
Both are Linux distributions and each has equal merit.
Whether one distribution is more suited than the other simply boils down to personal preference.

Voted George Harrison only because George Martin wasn't an option.

True, but nevertheless there are advantages.

Save yourself the bother of building it and just buy this.

Long term it will save on electricity bills and it'll be quieter as...

There's even a search engine named after one of the Father Ted characters, www.doogle.org

So long as there's a button to click that'll make it look exactly like 8.04, I'll be happy.

Voted dislike, but that's a lie, I hate it.

Nope, I'm definitely not addicted to Ubuntu, I'm really not, how could I be addicted to Ubuntu when I can also happily use Mint.....

(voted yes)

Don't understand why you would want all those cables going to a single box when ultimately they need to go to different locations...?

I have two co-ax feeds from a satellite dish to my satellite...

Nope, that's what I would regard as a bare minimum for Xp.

Scored a huge victory in that regard recently, got her using Scribus instead of Publisher.
One battle in the ongoing war....

The war will end in 2014 when Xp support gets turned off, I'm not...

Nope, bad enough having to pay for MS licences without paying for bloatware.
It has AVG, PCTools Firewall and Spybot S&D.

Done that, still slow.

Probably needs re-installed.

I want to remove the Ubuntu Software Store and Ubuntu One.

Won't know what the dependencies are till the final release.
Might be easy, might not, need to wait and see.

How did your ISP find out?

Are you sure?
AFAIK the offence is distributing copyrighted material, if you don't upload you're not distributing.

More like FantasyVista.

Compared to Linux, XpSP3 runs like a snail on my wife's 2.6ghz 1.5gb RAM PC so there's no way it's even half decent on a P3.

I agree it feels that way, however I am reserving judgement till 10.04 is released.
If it isn't possible to remove Ubuntu One and the Ubuntu Software Store (Centre?), I won't be using Ubuntu...
