@Israel: Thanks for the thoughts, the OP is "fairnet" but I've been considering a test run on the iBook of 14.04 . . . I'm fine with 12.04, should be supported for the viable life of the computer . . . but, thanks for the idea of JWM . . . I might try that out for humor . . . definitely the iMac is probably staying with 12.04, so another DE would add some "flavor" . . . . For me sound isn't too critical on the iBook, it's kind of a "mad max" unit by now . . . but it seems for fairnet he would like sound for his PB . . . .
