I am really enjoying 11.04, better than any previous version. However the only issue I have is that my Dell laptop with a Broadcom wireless card is not working with 11.04. Hopefully this will be fixed soon. <div> </div> <div> <div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, May 9, 2011 at 8:00 AM, <<a href="mailto:ubuntu-us-in-request@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-us-in-request@lists.ubuntu.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> Send Ubuntu-us-in mailing list submissions to <a href="mailto:ubuntu-us-in@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-us-in@lists.ubuntu.com</a> To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-in" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-in</a> or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to <a href="mailto:ubuntu-us-in-request@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-us-in-request@lists.ubuntu.com</a> You can reach the person managing the list at <a href="mailto:ubuntu-us-in-owner@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-us-in-owner@lists.ubuntu.com</a> When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Ubuntu-us-in digest..."

Good thing I tested it with a I'm not an Ubuntu-on-the-desktop user, but 11.04 has both xfce[0] and awesome[1] (my choice) according to <a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com" target="_blank">packages.ubuntu.com</a>. Both will have *much* lower resource requirements. Being a CLI junkie and "mouse-hater" I find that awesome works quite well for me on those instances when I do need a GUI (mostly just for a browser). Perhaps one of those might be better suited for your older machines?
