[ubuntu-in] OT: Taking tux (and Ubuntu) for a run

[BR!j!TH]

Hai all,
                    My case is entirely different. Of course I am working in
a small company, when I joined here these people where using Debian in every
system. I could convince my management team to use Ubuntu. I told them
my experiences with Ubuntu (I have been using Ubuntu Since ubuntu 5.10). Now
in our office we run ubuntu 9.04 in 5 systems. Few days back i had a meeting
with management team. They asked me about installing Ubuntu in each and
every system in our office. It was on 29 th oct the day ubuntu 9.10
scheduled to release. I told them about ubuntu 9.10. They told me to install
Ubuntu 9.10 and setup our working environment and test the feasibility. I
told them to wait for couple of weeks so that few updates to come out and
let ubuntu guys fix the obvious bugs.


I am confident that we will be installing Ubuntu 9.10 in every system
replacing Debian and Ubuntu 9.04

:)
