I was reading my local University student newspaper and came across a half page add by Google. They are asking students to take a survey about email. This add basically seems to be saying whatever email system your school is using sucks and they should switch to Gmail!!! Pretty audacious considering they want University's to agree to have their library holdings all scanned!

It's already been a year since Ubuntu's LTS release and now a fresh 7.04 arrives Thursday!!! I really like that there are so many flavors, including the Xubuntu for my 3 aged and decrepit PCs that can barely run anything at all with their Pentium II and 500Mhz Celeron processors...
Here's the skinny:
This new v7.04 release encompasses five versions: Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Desktop, Edubuntu, Kubuntu, and Xubuntu. Along with the self-explanatory server and desktop versions, Edubuntu is meant for educational uses; Kubuntu is a desktop platform that uses KDE 3.5.6 for its desktop environment instead of Ubuntu's GNOME 2.18; and Xubuntu is a desktop for lower-end PCs and uses the lightweight Xfce 4.4 desktop manager.
