VLC is all I ever use. Choice is good, and with Lubuntu we seem to have
lots of choices. I removed Abiword, Gnumeric, Chromium, Sylpheed, added
Google Chrome dev, Pan, and Vlc. Doesn't really matter what the default
packages are as long as they can be removed, replaced, etc. Just my $0.02.
Is it likely that we'll be seeing a Lubuntu Alpha 1 coming out with
the rest of the 'buntu 10.10 Alpha releases?
I sure hope so. Lubuntu is what I've spent a long time looking for.
I see it as an all-purpose distro. I put it on my AMD dual-core 4G
