Ubuntu 11.04 for netbooks on Dell Inspiron Duo

[Mohamed Zaian]

Salam All,

I have a friend tried 9.04 on his tablet and it was awesome , since 8.10
Ubuntu is a touch friendly, as for Amr we should stick on on the original
questions, not to mention any known bugs , i'm using Unity on natty since
the first alpha release and overall it's pretty nice.
