Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, i now see that the UBUNTU craze is flying in here, i currently use ubuntu jaunty and windows vista on my hp tx2000 series and God the jaunty works like mad (stylus,touch screen, touch senstive, webcam, finger print reader, just name it ubuntu jaunty got it all), the only thing im lacking now is a wifi card for spoofing, lol well ubuntu 9.04 is good, prefer gnome to kde, kde tends to be flashy, but stupid, gnome is easy and rugged, my kde crashed like 3 times, becos of some useless spoofing activity but gnome is trivin in all aspect, gnomes network manager is preferable than odas, tried ndiswrapper shit that thin is useless, cant connect my mobile, cdma to my pc, had to switch back to gnomes network manager, d only problem im facing with gnome now is the battery manager, that thing lies alot, still finding a way to upgrade or get a new batteru manager, but would stick to it until gnome releases a better version, ubuntu rules  have fun people

@lynx install kde - i know it's a waste but at least that way it's sure of working, even if you still use gnome as your window manager
