Do you ubuntu?

I've been watching (mostly via her twitterings on the subject) the saga of famous librarian Jessamyn installing Ubuntu on a library computer; it's a heartwarming tale, but it's made a kind of bittersweet parallel to my own tale of woe as I've completely failed to get anything other than OS 9 installed on my old G3 Mac, due to its apparent inability to boot from anything other than its own 60GB-of-pure-stubborness hard drive. (It's a long, frustrating and not terribly interesting story.) Today, even the Motley Fool is raving about Ubuntu. I feel as though someone's laughing at me.

Very good actually :-) The QI is a very odd place to go to gigs though... hatmandu describes it rather well here (http://hatmandu.livejournal.com/141687.html).

I was there for Ape Has Killed Ape! et al as part of the Oxford Punt, remember... :-) It seemed like quite a good venue despite the weird shape, and their cocktails were lovely. It'll be interesting to see what the new owners (http://www.theoxfordtimes.net/mostpopular.var.1389126.mostviewed.new_owner_for_trendy_qi_club.php) do with the place.
