I could not resist....
I received notification that a new version of Ubuntu was now available,
version 11+ ??? so I thought I would install it on the computer I use
for email and web surfing.
12 hours later it is working, slow as molasses, can't find anything.
Every old program and link I used now has glitches and warnings that old
features no longer work. Things that were formally at my fingertips are
nowhere to be found.
So if you are tempted to try the latest Ubuntu upgrade ...
DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T
DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T
DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T ....

Haven't tried Ubuntu but have been running Fedora 12 [ Constantine ] for
a few years and is very stable, runs a fair amount of software, used
online 6 hrs a day. Tried running Fedora 15 but went back to Fedora 12.
Sounds like sometimes the newer versions of these Linux type O/S are not
as productive when initially released, which is to be expected. Best to
test newer versions on a seperate cloned drive - which Linux makes easy.
