Hi Sean
Couldn't agree more - I'm happy to buy a DVD writer for my Ubuntu box but
I'm puzzled as to why these Windows machines (one Vista, one XP) can't burn
an iso properly - given the iso itself is correct according to the checksum.
Out of interest, when I swapped my graphics card, the Ubuntu transition
wasn't seamless - is swapping a CDRW for a DVDRW anything to worry about?
