Im liking ubuntu more and more... its really a pretty nice desktop. As little as a year ago I'd have been with the folks saying 'linux isnt ready for the desktop' but with 6.10 I'm not so sure... if you can use a mouse and firefox then you are good to go with 6.10....

there's the whole business about flash and the nvidia drivers...but it is still a great OS.

let us know if VPC will do any of the desktop effects or the 3d stuff!
