Just commenting on the new artwork that has come down the pipe.
We love you Ringo. Oh, yes we do. We love no other as much as you.
It is a machine. It is more stupid than we are. It will not stop us from doing stupid things. Ubuntu user #33,200. Linux user #530,530
Ringo sort of rolls off the tounge. I can use that term now with clients. Just tell then we are at Ringo. Talking Ubuntuesque like Quantal Queztal, Precise Pangolin or Oneric Ocelot does just not roll over well with noobs. (new prospects) So now I can say .. 'Hey .. why don't you try Ringo!? ' jk.. Nice artwork btw. I've waited 4 months for it.

Once a version is released, it is referred to by it's number.

I love that. Both the "self-defined" Pangolin and Quetzal wallpapers were good but this is the best ever!

Once a version is released, it is referred to by it's number. When I use numbers "Well there is Ubuntu 10.4 or 11.10 etc.. " peoples jaws drop. Then I have to explain what Ubuntu is . but yes.. I see your logic here.

It's sharp , has definition but doesn't yell , holler out at you or hurt the eyes. It's very considerate of persons who may have photophobia or RSI eye strain from being at terminal all day.
If you ask me, Ringo himself looks like he (she?) has done a bit too much staring at a terminal screen.
either that or he was smoking the good stuff . lol
if it ain't broke you haven't tweaked it enough

Back in the early 1960's they used to make golf balls with one continous rubber band wraped around a rubber ball filled with liquid of some sort. As kids we used to take the old balls apart and watch the rubber band come undone , as if it was alive! A kernel acts in the same sort of way .. it's all wrapped up in a bundle of depends.. and .. if one goes they all go Looks like Ringo is on top of things though.
