I know you're all going to hate me lol, but I'm like Paul, I use Windows Vista a lot for schoolwork etc, and I do a lot of heavy gaming.
I've got Home Premium at the moment, but would obviously like the upgrade! It's just not feasible for me to have Ubuntu as a main operating system at the moment, and depending on my A-Level choices, I may need Windows for coding applications (I think it's using C# or C++) And I know you're going to lobby me now saying I should, in turn, lobby my teachers to teach open-source coding etc ;-) I don't mind what you choose lol James Milligan -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alan Pope Sent: 17 November 2008 16:12 To: British Ubuntu Talk Subject: Re: [ubuntu-uk] Windows Vista Ultimate Edition 2008/11/17 Jai Harrison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > So I just won a copy of Windows Vista Ultimate Edition in a prize draw > and figured that it's no use to me as an Ubuntu user.

I am thinking people like Colin Watson or Evan Dandrea who work on the install and migration tools or Agostino Rossi who works on wubi.
