But here’s Ubuntu week 1, not edited or smoothed out. I stopped at the license agreement. Once Ubuntu finished booting, I clicked the wonderful “install&# icon at the top. A few minutes later, I had a Ubuntu install with KDE – but it was bare bones. I’ll understand points of pain, for sure.

Also, for you Windows types, here is a plain english interpretation of the Windows Vista EULA (End User License Agreement.) Get Ubuntu , and have done already. But if you really want to have done with stuff like this, get Ubuntu. How about this one: " You may not work around any technical limitations in the software."
