Bless your heart-sitting down with a
linux for dummies book today-though I DO need some ASAP ???'s answered!
Thankyou-you are a knight in shining armour...

thanks Sam. And yes its trouble with both-upgrades in
particular, and accessing downloads-don't know what
to use, after I click open on a download eg retrieve?
and..then which command to enter..

I will never go back to M$. You don't need much of a brain there..
all multiple choice questions, and you get 5 guesses.

May I check back with you at noon pst?

learning this is intoxicating!!

well try upgrading to the newest version of ubuntu, by entering....

updatemanager

into a terminal, this will take you to the next version in the series, then perform another upgrade, then another, until you reach the latest release of feisty fawn
