In that case, maybe I should give it a try.

Do you just download the file and double-click on it?

We've been using a flavor of 8.04 LTS (gOS 3.1) for over a year now...
It's been brilliant.

+1

I'm using the Update Manager to update to 10.04 now. Servers are
dog-slow (surprise) but it should be good fun. Long live LTS!

Glad to hear that! I decided to wait a few days first before installing
it. Let the dust settle first... :)

I have just downloaded version Ubuntu 10.04 (alternative install
version) and it installed flawlessly. Nvidia drivers installed without a
problem. Now for the printers!!!!!

I don't like the colour scheme much but that can be changed easily.

So far I like what I see.
