Over here in the UK, up until the late 80s Radio 1 was only on MW and so there was probably more people listening to MW than FM/VHF. As for DRM, I not sure if this is going to go any better than how DAB has turned out - lots of stations crammed in therefore low bit rates and terrible sound quality.
Yes, I have installed Ubuntu on various laptops and netbooks. Only had problems with 2, the first one I had to use the Windows drivers with ndiswrapper as there were no open source drivers around and the company had vanished years ago. The second one worked after I realised that there was a switch on the front of the laptop to turn wifi on!
They kept calling here too, even though I told them that it was impossible for me to be having a problem with Windows as I use Linux, they still kept calling back.
Thankfully I haven't had a call from them for over a month now.
There has never been a point since the introduction of the 1024 "binary k" prefix that you didn't have to second-guess. RAM was different from disk, before that communications was already using SI kilo (or I should say, what would become SI kilo, since they predated the codification of SI).
The "binary" prefixes have always been problematic and don't help new people entering the field to understand anything, so they ought to go, or at least be segregated out so that there can be no confusion.
Except that memory cards seem to have gone the way of disks where an 8GB card is 8x10^4.
Does this mean I'm now free to publish lists of football fixtures on my website?
The FA emailed me a few years ago to say that the information is copyright.

Apple's US to UK price conversion also means it costs £125 over here.

Perhaps we should all go back to using Lynx or other text only web browser. Who needs fancy graphics anyway?

There's become, obtained, received for starters.
Is the amount of words spelt the American way here in the UK. For example words ending in ize instead of ise, color, tire and gotten.

I managed to get them working on Kubuntu 10.04 with Konqueror by installing kpart-webkit. It worked on all of them apart from the Audio and Video.

Unfortunately I live in the UK so I presume that ruling doesn't apply?

I was just thinking exactly the same thing
They should stop recommending Windows Vista on all their adverts oh and have clearer links on their site to the LInux machines.
Yeah, I followed the link and was greeted with a page of instructions in French. At least I was able to understand the Bash commands!
I think the next LTS release will be in April next year with 10.04.
