Do you play music WHILE playing?

Hi!
I've just booted the Ubuntu 8.04 64Bit Live CD to check if those
sucking wifi rates are a problem of my setup or if it's the driver's
fault. I can say, it's the driver's fault. I've just downloaded
Firefox 2 (9MB) and I never got more than 30KB/sec. When browsing
during that time, it dropped to nearly as fast as in Windows.
I've given up using Ubuntu for anything except listening music, just
because it's unbearable. I'm even considering switching... perhaps to
Fedora.

Cheers anyhow.
Phil
