    Default Ubuntu 10.04 running good so far

    Well this evening i installed ubuntu 10.04 beta 1 on ma machine at work and i must say i'm impressed. I love the new look and change from the old human theme is quite welcomed (no ned to be looking for themes ) i have installed all ma apps except crossover to install office 2007 and it running quick. The startup time is way better too. Right now i'm allllll smiles

    Was wondering if I shoulda get the beta or not, but seeing your post I think I just might. If it looks so good, why not? I had an issue with 9.10 - hopefully that is resolved in the beta, which would mean good news for me in the full release.

    Anybody know the timeline for the PowerPC release? I'm trying to get the beta for 10.04 but I'm not sure when they compile the PPC version. I'm running it on my old IbookG4.
