<FONT SIZE="6">Hello,</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">I am on line. Thanks very much for the great help</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">given by the people who replied to my requests.</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">I still have a few problems. </FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">1. My type is too small. Figured out the [ctrl] + to</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">make type larger on webpages but the results are</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">kluggy and doesn't always work. I am using the</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">email client that came with the download. The type</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">is very small unless I go into the format and convert</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">the type to html. </FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">2. How to upgrade from the version 7.x that I am</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">using to the latest version.</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">I have a computer that with VISTA. According to</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">one of the LINUX experts, who wrote me, I'm using</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">the Windows boot manager.</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">I attempted to do the upgrade from the Ubuntu site</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">but it gave me error messages and aborted.</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">Before I got information on changing the password I</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">tried to install 8.10 onto the computer a few times </FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">with some apparent success but when I started the </FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">computer it came to the boot manager that lists the</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">version 7.x (+ its recover mode). I would like to get</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">rid of the hidden installations and go with the latest.</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">After I get that I'll go to the nearby Barnes & Noble</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">and purchase the correct Ubuntu book.</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">3. I like to listen to CBC RadioOne but it requires</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">Windows media. Is there a work around?</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">4. I also like to listen to BBC Radio 4 but it requires</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">Real Media. My efforts to install it did not work (it</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">might help if I had larger text). </FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">Even with my newbie problems I am liking Ubuntu</FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">more than Windows.</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">Thanks </FONT><BR>
<FONT SIZE="6">Thomas. </FONT>
