What prompted the switch from SUSE to Ubuntu? I started out on that (for a brief 5-10minutes before the install died), then Redhat. While Ubuntu is far from perfect it certainly doesn't reduce me to despair as often as the alternatives! I'm including Windows in that too btw. > I run (mostly single handed) the Infopoint table at the Bracknell > Computer fairs monthly if I am available.

What success do you have handing out CDs and do what sort of feedback do you get? It's always good to hear people are having success introducing people to OSS- in many ways the individual stuff is where the biggest impact can be had. Do you get into much post-introduction support? Anyway, lots of questions. Good to have you on the list. Martin Fitz -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
