Just upgraded Slackware from 13 to current on the same machine - updated the package list, and told it to upgrade everything - then it asked me if which config files I wanted to overwrite, booted it, and it all worked as it was supposed to.
I had more problems with the 2 weeks I tried running Ubuntu then the last 5 years with Slackware on my desktop. (Not going to talk about my Slackware 3.5 and ISDN issues back in the 90s!)
But why don't the Linux distros go to same lengths? It shouldn't be impossible, unless of course, commercial projects are maintained more professionally.
They do - just not Ubuntu. If you look at Slackware, they only release when the system is at least as good as a Microsoft release SP3. They are actually superior to Debian as well.
Oh, and by the way, if you change Windows 7 with Windows Vista, you're not far from what happened the last time. And my bet is that with all these news reports, the next Ubuntu version (10.04) will be a lot better, and more thoroughly tested than the current one.
Maiden name is ok - it's you who choose what the answer will be. You do not have to use the real one! I can actually tell you that my mothers maiden name was Ellingsen, and it won't help you anywhere, because that's not the answer I'm using to that question!

I know a lot of European girls who drink those brands!
It is really frustrating when the "judges" make rules allowances late in the game.
Actually - the rules stated that the judges could do this - but yes, I agree
But not out of reach.
There's a launch complex in northern Sweden.
Or if Debian is not good enough, use Slackware

The land between the turbines can be used for other things like farming. They're spread over 36K acres, not occupying all of it.
Oh? Name one that's been killing in the name of atheism!
Nope! You're wrong - it's been other things!
Communism is one of the bigger ones.
Sometimes you get the feeling that it's FOX that's the main stream media
People like you is why the rest of the world hates USA (and not Canada)
Today however... Ares 1x launch could go very boom
Up!
Just did a rough calculation and that's almost 3 times more than what Norway spend per taxpayer per day.
You win!
Ubuntu is not stable compared to other Linux flavors
In addition you have to consider local VAT laws for the different countries. 15% some place, 25% other places, etc.
We do this already in Norway in Sparebank1 at least
Been doing it for a couple of years I think, so this is not something new.
The SMS way (skandiabanken? ;) ) is far better than the token. You don't want to have everything in your pocket, so you leave it at home instead.

What about software? That's the big question here
I just can't imagine who'd want a BMW 1series instead of an electron microscope. Think that's the only one you'd get for $60k here in Norway.
Actually - it's probably the first ESA commander.
Wasn't that kind of what he said? :-)
Think it was said by a great man a few years ago....
The answer my friend, is blowing in the wind....
Actually - Chicago was the first city that was removed from the list of potential candates.
They lost, and Rio won!
