Hi Kim,

Ubuntu user here from Cottage Grove, Oregon. [just south of Eugene] I've 
been using Ubuntu since last August in a dual boot with Windows XP, and 
I seldom boot to Windows anymore, other than to install updates.

Ubuntu comes with a wealth of documentation to smooth you over the rough 
spots, and since I've discovered that, I've had to ask fewer questions 
in the Ubuntu User's group I belong to. For a look at the list of docs I 
think are most necessary, have a look at my page here -

There may be small differences in availability for you, since you are 
using the 8.10 version, I'm still using good old reliable 8.04.2 Hardy 
Heron which is a long term support LTS version.

I'm glad to see there are other Oregonians using Ubuntu. 8-)

Later, Ray Parrish
