[nfbcs] Re; Linux or Vinux query

[Blaine Clark]

The Vinux developers were hoping to release a trouble-free Vinux 4.0 
late last fall but are still having some trouble with Ubuntu's new Unity 
styled desktop. Ubuntu decided to follow the Window 8 lead with a 
desktop that is more touch screen targeted and in order to do that they 
dropped the older Gnome style was much friendlier to the accessibility 
features in Linux. I wouldn't recommend using Ubuntu 12.x. Stick with 
the Ubuntu 10.x that Vinux 3.x versions use, especially if you have not 
used Linux before. Another plus is that by using Vinux 3.x versions you 
can depend on good support from the Vinux support group; 
http://groups.google.com/group/vinux-support?hl=en. If you try to use 
Ubuntu 12.x, you'll run into the same troubles that the Vinux developers 
are trying to fix.

On the other hand, if you don't mind some small troubles and rolling 
your sleeves up to work out some bugs with the help of the support group 
and the developers and helping the developers out with testing, the 
latest test builds of Vinux using Ubuntu 12.x can be downloaded here;
