Hey Rob;
The screenshots were taken on my Dell Mimi at about 1024x600, so scaling
them up may not cause too much disorientation.
As for what you said about the logo bieng too dark, you were right. I

screenshots, they look

Absolutely agreed. It's a constant pleasure to behold. And the superior
applications adopt it too. The inferior ones do not. I have noticed this
with video editors (amongst which, for me, neither superior nor inferior
actually work, however).

Yeah, that telly ad sounds like a really good idea! Perhaps we could all

Hi
It's got to be a good thing to spread the word about Ubuntu 10.4 as far and
wide as is possible, especially since it is an LTS version. I do think,
however, that the message needs to be targeted.
