This should go to show ppl that he is really a good person and i cant say enough about him. I have know Theemahn for over 10 years.and he HAS given me the shirt right off his back before not to mentoin the advice,apathy,and encouragement he has thrown my way too.

This made me laugh.... I think you mean like sympathy or empathy.... ( I just love malapropisms: like when my wife told my therapist that I was an "intellectual slob" instead of "intellectual snob" as she intended.)

BTW, I am thrilled with Ultimate 1.8. For reasons unknown to me it runs faster and is more responsive than Ubuntu 8.04. Any ideas why?

The Window also loaded at the top left hand side of the screen under the screen top bar. Because of this you were unable to move the windows around unless you toggled Alt. Any ideas?
