Moving to gOS 2.9

Ubuntu 8.04 is great...but I love to try distros that are new and doing different things. Yes, gOS 2.9 is based on Ubuntu 7.10. So under the hood there is much of difference, but in this case its on the outside that counts.

gOS 2.9 is the "Space" upgrade to gOS 2.0 Rocket. Instead of Enlightment this time they go with Gnome and the Avant Dock Bar.

I will be installing on the trusted Dell 9300 1.6 Ghz, 1 GB RAM, 60 GB HD, 128 MB Ati Radeon Mobile. We will see if she can handle it.

I will also be redoing my Desktop Compaq 1.5 Ghz 1.25 GB RAM, 40 GB HD, 128 MB Ati.
