You were lucky because what is Ubuntu? Linux? My son had to do his homework
a second time at school to be able to get the credit even though he had
already done it. As it was a presentation there was no way to print it and I
thought he was to young to bring his laptop at school and was myself unable
to get to the school. I just hope he'll have more luck with the high school.
