Ok... the bug has gotten me... I'm downloading the latest build now and about to install it on an older dell box that I keep for testing distros and OSs...
I also just finished listening to FLOSS weekly which had a great interview with Jeff Waugh- an early member of the Ubuntu team...
I'd be willing to host this box in my DMZ and set up accounts for FT members.... with a good X11 server or VLC client it would be easy to take a test drive remotely... let me know if there is any interest.
