+1 Both gutsy heron, and 8.04 cocked up the video for me, also both couldnt detect my broadcom wireless adapter, so it was goodbye to Ubuntu. No way am i prepared to type out a page of commands to fix driver issues - being forced to use command lines is something that should stay in the 80's imo! Before someone buys a new laptop/pc preinstalled with vista, i recommend checking the manufactures site first, to see if they have XP compatible drivers, so you can downgrade easily. Toshiba is one of the manufacturers ive noticed that have XP compatible drivers. WindowsXP is okay, but TinyXP Rev 09 is freaking awesome! Being using it the last week, and its amazingly faster/liter i love it! Problem is, it uses an illegal serial number, so the downloaded version is not legal but.... By using N-Lite and an XP setup disc image, you can achieve the same results legally by using the same script.
