Looking forward to trying fiesty out!

I recently bought a new laptop, and have been using Ubuntu on it since day one, with great success. I can do everything I want, and just run windows under VM Ware to sync my PDA. I've had no virus or spyware issues, and easily installed LAMP for local web development. I've tried out the fancy 3D graphics stuff (Beryl) and found the various new methods of switching windows help my productivity.

I've recently been sent the free Windows Vista upgrade disk. I'm not sure that I will bother!
