Just a quick question fellas, never done it before. I have been running 10.04 since Beta 1.. doing all the updates and such. What happens on the 29th when the final release is ready? Do I have to start over, or can I just keep updating my install?

Thanks :)

Hi Mike

You are more than welcome! :)

When you have time take a look at Ubuntu Tweak, a superb Ubuntu utility that is free and I find I can not do without it :)

Keep on Ubuntuing and kind regards john

Quite right John! Very useful little app. Certainly makes cleaning up the cruff left over from all these updates a snap!

Thanks for the tip. :)
