Intrepid Ibex

So I recently updated my t41 laptop to Ibex. The system is great. When I was using 8.04 I couldn’t do my compiz tricks and now with 8.10 I can. Great work Ubuntu team! I use amarok for my Ipod and handbrake to convert my vids and push them on the Ipod. I also use ushare to stream vids to the 360 which works quite well.

Merry Christmas to all of you who stop by and visit my blog.
