Hi Nick, (you will have to tell me one day if you prefer nicholas over nick :) )
One thing that I pick up time and time again is 'red' bugs for ubiquity. Any system can make a 100% installable system, but if Ubiquity falls over, we are all ..... chooses polite word.... How about "Up the creek without a paddle". I do, hand on heart, say that not enough attention and testing of the default installer is done. Regards, Phill.
