    In the words of addicts everywhere, I'm using again!

    Ubuntu, that is. 13-04 on a MacBook Pro Retina, to be exact.
    Just got the wireless working and a usable screen resolution (though it's a little bit fuzzy around the edges of letters).
    Early days! It seems I've forgotten a lot

    Anyway just saying hello

    Thanks and you too, my cousin from over the Channel
    I've got much re-adjustment to do too! I've forgotten so much it's shocking.

    I'm on Macs too for work, not that far away

    Is yours a retina? Maybe something could smooth out the edges of things when not using the default 2880x1800 resolution. I'm currently down to 1920x1200 and things are now the right size but a little bit fuzzy. I'll work something out though

    Nope, it's an older MBP. And I've not installed ubuntu on it, it does not belong to me even though I'm the only one and will be the only one using it
    I've got a 29" iMac on my desk too. This one is cool
