Oh well I have just screwed up my windows partition on my new laptop after installing Dapper, but I got to say it Dapper absolutely flies on this Centrino Duo.

:)

It's smooth, everything installed perfectly apart from the wireless network card which can be sorted. It also detected the onboard Intel Graphics card.

Looks like we may have another customer too. I showed my girlfriend the educational programmes and I am now downloading her the edubuntu live cd so she take in to her school to teach the kids. She said to me how much does it cost? Nothing I said. Just another joy of working with Open Source. The equivelant educational programmes costs hundreds of pounds.

Unfortunately a lot of people immediately equate free to mean "crap" these days. The value of the word "free" has truely diminished in the public's eye :(.

I've always said, "It comes at no cost to those with an open mind."
