ALOT has changed in this distro

Here's a screenie of the live screen

Got this little sneak preview for you guys off LifeHacker. I've been running the beta for a few weeks.... Im VERY excited to see the final release

I dont see many changes for users of K3B and Ktorrent on Gnome. "PulseAudio Integration" sounds like a good concept though.....

Thanks for the heads-up

I am lazy and don't feel like searching for details that won't affect the way i live my life, but what new features does it have over 7.10?

GB i`ll take a copy when u have it............pm ME?

You know Jeff, i would SO take you up on your offer, but i want it faster than you can get it to me

I'm so impatient

No matter though, it'll come up on one of the local mirrors shortly after release, so i'll be able to DL it for less that what it'll cost you to ship it to me, so i can save you some cash too

Buy yourself a Steers meal instead

Hey, i actually just payed for your next steers mean

First off, why on earth do you owe me steers?
Second, dont be so impatient. I'll be refreshing the Ubuntu download page until I see the 8.04 link pop up. Then its download time

The release time is for next week Thursday, so if everything goes smoothly I can have it burnt after 5pm on Thursday afternoon. And can be shipped off on Friday morning - whichever Speed Service option you choose. Think about it Ett

Yeah, but that costs monies Jeff

Speed service-ing anything will cost you 40 bucks. I'd rather DL it for less than 20

Thanks though dude, i really appreciate it

Doesnt seem I'll get through to you on this one

No problem for the offer bro, its still open if you change your mind. If you pay for my flight up to you, I'll bring it to you personally

DAE_JA_VOO · Post by **DAE_JA_VOO** » 14 Apr 2008, 09:18

ROFL!!!

Hmmm... maybe that's a better option

And it will probably cost you more than Vista

Also speed service is over night AFAIK, whereas on a 384k line I could get it in 5 - 7 hours. So I think DL is faster

True, but he'd be getting a much better (read: working) product for his money

I also have a 4mbps line at work, although I only have 384k at home. But what I'm saying is even if you only have 384k at home (some people have more) its still only about 7 hours DL whereas speed service is about 10 hours and costs more
