Hi Al,

This was my fear however I thought it would be worth asking. I experienced a
similar issue when upgrading my older HP 10.04 desktop to 11.04 when I was
immediately informed that the hardware would not permit the nice left
aligned floating toolbar which 11.04 offers. This of course was just one of
many functionalities limited by the hardware.

With regards to these more aesthetic limitations, can you possibly expand to
comment on what other types of issues I might encounter. The last thing I
want to do is go crawling for a more recent version of XP tablet ed, I would
however happily opt for a version of Ubuntu with limited functionality.

Thanks again
