I have nothing to say about this product as I have not used it since I have a 64 bit computer and this is a 32 bit version.

Version 10 and it still has all the same glitches, endless code and incompatabilities it had since the beginning. Wireless support totally sucks, audio support is a jolk, and usually you have to settle with haveing one of the two work depending on which distro you install. I tried Linux for a third time when I saw the new version 10 and it still sucks. I now have XP back on my Eee PC and everything works as it should with no code hhaving to be written, or config to suffer from.
The age old question: what can windows do that Linux can’t?
Aside from everything in general the main answer is WORK!

Did not receive the disk. On the last day of the expected delivery date, I contacted the vendor who was not aware that I had not received it. Instead of shipping it then, he refunded my money. I still wanted the disk and had to order it again (from a different vendor).

I was disappointed because the copy I received was burned and nowhere did the seller say it was to be a burned copy. Other than that, the copy does work and Ubuntu is possibly one of the best versions of linux.
