Interesting article, and aiding my confidence that the way forward is 
not Windows.

Have now managed to play around with the live cd of ubuntu and kubuntu. 
The first thing I noticed is that I was unable to see all my drives and 
files in kubuntu. This was important as I wanted to see how to migrate 
file formats over.

Would kubuntu have installed a virtual drive/directory for the purposes 
of the exercise, or should I have been running as it will be after a 
full install?

My mind grappled with the possibilities and I came down to the two 
drives on my machine being NTFS rather than Fat 32.

Still having trouble getting on line ubuntu/kubuntu. It could be the 
terminology is different so I am putting the wrong things in the boxes 
:-(
