Worried when 10.04lts goes end of life

Sun Nov 27 09:12:09 UTC 2011

Nothing to worry about. Ubuntu installation is very easy. If you can install windows, you can install ubuntu. You can practise installing on a virtualbox. 

As for the new gui, there is workaround to use the older gnome. 

So dont worry. Sorry for the top posting.

In order to sidestep Windows Vista, I have bought both my Thinkpad R61i and Ideapad S12 preinstalled with Ubuntu from Linux Emporium. i have therefore never installed Linux myself, only accepted updates and LTS upgrades as required. i now hear that the user environment has completely changed, and I risk having my machines bricked when 12.04.1 comes around... Or the learning curve completely changes. Why has this happened? I've tried reading through some opf the info on "unity" whatever that is.. And this rthing with "docks"... I've always used the Taskbar...
