<pre>Hi! I'm Priyadarshi from Delhi. I was searching informations and tutorials on linux and I came to know about Ubuntu, and found your mail-ID from its site. I've some queries reagrding its features and shipping as I'm interested shifting to Linux. Currently I'm using P3 800Mhz and 512MB DDR on my Krypton's 370 Socket M6VLQ Grand motherboard having Windows 2003 Server Installed. I'd like to know whether: 1. the latest version of Ubuntu Enterprise Edition will be compatible with my PC or not. If not then which version I'll have to use? 2. How much the CD/DVD will cost including the cost of the CD/DVD (media) and transportation charges at my doorstep? Or is it really free with no hidden charges? 3. With my Windows O/S I'm using Avast Anti-Virus, Agnitum Outpost Firewall, Nero6, Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.1, MS Office 2003, VCD Cutter 4.04, ALZip 6.1, Nokia Multimedia Player 1.1 and few USB devices like mouse, printer and digital and web cameras. If I shift to Linux what alternate to all these applications I'll to purchase? Does it comes bundled with Ubuntu itself? if not how much extra it'll cost me and from where I can get these applications? 4. Do ICQ and Skype support for Linux? Is there any other compatible messenger available so that I can use these ID on Linux? Pleas don't give Official or Unofficial Ubuntu Guide as it'll not help me. Hope you'll help and clear my doubts. Thanks Priyadarshi</pre> <A HREF="http://ads.sify.com/RealMedia/ads/click_nx.ads/mail.sify.com/sentmail@Bottom" target=_new> <IMG SRC="http://ads.sify.com/RealMedia/ads/adstream_nx.ads/mail.sify.com/sentmail@Bottom" width=300 height=40 border=0></a>
