[CoLoCo] Ubuntu 10.04 Countdown Banners

[Kevin Fries]

AWESOME, doing my update now... Gotta love running beta with all those daily updates... 237 over the weekend, lol.

But, I went so far as to installing Chrome instead of Firefox because of the Yahoo thing.  Even though I actually prefer Firefox.

If this is true, time to use FF again, whew!

The default search engine in Firefox has also been changed back to Google.
