Hi Caroline, I bought this Dell Inspiron 1525 (the basic model) about a month ago. It came with Gutsy pre-installed. I agree with Mac's comments about the partitioning: it came with 4 partitions 1. a click-through license application that only appears the first time you boot, 2. a copy of the Dell-specific Ubuntu ISO image, for re-installing, 3. the root partition, 4. the swap partition. The only minor niggle I've noticed so far is that I can't enable Compiz. I've only tried once though, and I didn't look for what the error message was. Other than that, it's a very nice machine. Hwyl, Neil. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
