Same here!  That's very disappointing.  :-(((

I've been waiting (and waiting, and waiting) for Ubuntu 8.04 to be 
announce on them...  (Yes, I know I can upgrade them.  I don't *want* 
to, I want them to come from the factory all up-to-date and ready to go.)

Later,

"Microsoft Tax" = the additional hardware & yearly fees for the add-on
software required to protect Windows from its own poorly designed and
implemented self, while the overhead incidentally flattens Moore's Law.
