Well I finally did it I moved my main desktop machine over to boot only Ubuntu (been running it on other machines for donkeys), I'm not sure what the finally straw with booting windows and running X in it but something was and thats that. Ubuntu is a pleasure to install and use - I'll blog more about what I've got running and how when I get time but you probably don't need to hear this but for any of you windows fans out there I will try and convert... oh and if you still fancy using windows, well you can run it inside ubuntu (8second boot up...)
oh and if you are ubuntu fan.... now get it in drink form:
its pretty good cola.
