Ooooh. Sounds interesting. Only thing that really stopped me install Ubuntu on my laptop last time was the older code like OOo 1.1.x. This preview release looks nice. Might have to source a few copies when it is finally release. Re-evaluate my choice of FC4 etc. Though I must admit FC4 is working fine for me so far.
Ray got Ubuntu to send him swags of CDs of the last version. What is the timeframe on the 5.10 final release?
I was told October 13th. shipit.ubuntu.com can take 6 weeks to deliver and apparently they'll process existing orders last so if you already got Warty, expect to wait! I downloaded ubuntu and kubuntu for the PPC already. It kicks ass!! What surprised me most is that it actually seems to be faster (on my old 300MHz PPC) I was expecting more features and larger code == slower which is the usual trend with every distro I've tried until now.
