I can get 60kB/s which would not be so bad but I don't feel like staying longer at work just because of Ubuntu. I'm gonna wait till i get home and download, torrents will be well seeded by then I presume.
Fresh installs are always better, performance wise anyway. It's like when you install new graphics card drivers, it's always best to un-install the previous version to prevent conflicts. But that was windows, this is linux.
aah,....just went to my friends place in the rain who generously agreed to download the CD image for me! just finished taking a backup of important files from Edgy. bout to reboot and install. :biggrin:
