Thank you for working on Ubuntu (and dealing promptly with that issue). Of cause I understand that Dapper is somewhat unstable - that was one of the reasons I was going to track it and to report bugs. Ubuntu being a community project I am also accepting the glitches (that is not about a closely monitored continuous integration dicipline).

However most of what I have written is also about choice. I am looking for a Linux distribution that supports choice for the technically illiterate or semi-illiterate and I think I have found this distribution in Ubuntu. This type of choice sometimes is at odds with Debian's idea of choice - making things more complex might give more options to people that are technically literate, but the average user might pay the price for this.

Windows networking is a point in case. Both homes and offices are full of networked Windows boxes and as long as I stay inside the Windows world everything is plug and play (in practical terms, everything means at least file and printer sharing).. More choice means to me that a user is able to decide whether to use Windows or Ubuntu or both on a particular box.
