I reverted back to Ubuntu 7.10 after having installed 8.04. The new release is way too bugy. It's based on the linux 2.6.24 kernel, instead of the previous 2.6.22 kernel, which is why a lot of softwares are not compatible with it, yet!

I'll let the guinea pigs sort out the bugs for a couple more months before I re-upgrade...

I want to install linux but I don't wanna install it on my new pc because last time I installed it with vista I didn't know how to get rid of fedora since I couldn't get my wireless to work. Had to pay $150 for a pc shop to do it and in the end he didn't even do it and I lost all my information and he just reinstalled vista.....Anyone know how to remove linux from vista in a duel boot?(from experience preferably)
