I've managed to get to Kubuntu on my Toshiba laptop, downloading a wubi based install throughout the day yesterday. Kubuntu kept me awake nearly till 0200 with its vibrant GUI and new apps. I was trying to get all work at once, but succeeded with some till sleep took over.
This morning, I found out that although I got the latest version 8.10 running, I've stumbled upon a non-LTS (Long Term Support) release post Hardy Heron 8.04. The next LTS release is Kubuntu 9.10 way ahead in Oct 2009, while another non-LTS Jaunty Jackalope is scheduled for April 2009.
A few days back, I made a wubi shift on my 64-bit dualcore AMD Anthlon XP2 desktop too, of course on NTFS now, but intend to make it a pure ext3 Linux machine. I want to continue shuffling WinDoze Vista for a while on the laptop alongside Kubuntu, just because I was forced to buy it in the laptop price! ;)
This blog is about anything technically opensource or copyleft-ed/ GPL-ed, obviously most of it Linux or connected to Linux in some way.
