Hi Christopher M. Penalver, Everything is the same as LaunchPadGirl's box, down to the last wire, so to speak, hehe, so it would be redundant to make another report of the same exact bug, with a box with the same exact specs... I'm just simply checking based on her bug report if Canonical has made any progress on this is all?
