Not for mass distribution - - -
Sorry guys, but after reading all this geekspeek and following many of the links to even more geekspeek, I still have NO IDEA what to expect if I try to download Ubuntu thru my wireless web connection into this old clunker of a desktop running WinME. Should I download Ubuntu and take the chance that this PC will self-destruct in one way or another? Or should I just shove my original Win98 CD into the slot in the front of the box and see what happens. It can't be any worse than this awwwwful ME op sys that freezes about every dozen web pages, right?
You would think there would be a web page with screen shots of the Ubuntu install sequence. Maybe even a logic tree of the install process? But no, then you couldn't show off your excellent command of jargonese and may actually have millions of non-techs using Ubuntu. What could be more horrible than that? I mean besides WinME, MicroSuck, AOL, Juno, et cetera ad infinitum.
