After upgrading my laptop I actually decided to continue using the same applications I always used, but now under Gnome. I run Kubuntu at work as well, and there I will wait *at least* for the next release *buntu 9.04 before upgrading. If you are running a small office, IMHO you should really stick with 8.04 as that release is the long term support release. kind regards, -- Francisco
