Ok, What about Ubuntu T-Shirts, Hats, Pants and even......, haha!

About the Install-fest, I planned some:
For WUBI:
WUBI have a big problem, that is, if the Windows' boot crashes, the
installed-Ubuntu also crashes ! if the user Re-installed a Windows, he
will need to Reinstall Ubuntu aswell!.....
Prebare:
1. if the user needs a dual machine, check for Space, if he
have about 6GB free, I'll partition one "Primary +5GB ext4"(after the
Windows' root drive) and one "Logical 1GB SWAP", if he has more space
will increase the ext4 space, for app-installation.

2. I'll use the Hiren's BootCD <http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/> to
set the Ubuntu ROOT drive as ACTIVE,
so machine will boot from it, and if the user installed a windows, he
won't hurt the GRUB, all what would be needed is to reset Ubuntu Root
to Active.

Installation:
3. During installation, choose the GRUB to be installed on the Ubuntu
ROOT, because if it installed on the disk's MBR, Windows'
reinstallation will clear the MBR, so user will need to install grub
again!.

comments?
