[08:34] <yellabs-r2> hello there
[08:35] <yellabs-r2> just came back from the bookshop, to my suprise i saw a linux magazine with an article on ubuntu
[08:35] <yellabs-r2> we are getting some bad press there about ubuntu ...
[08:36] <yellabs-r2> and its "choosen path"
[08:36] <yellabs-r2> http://www.linuxinsider.com/story/Angst-and-Anxiety-Over-Ubuntus-Chosen-Path-78157.html
[08:55] <yellabs-r2> lets hope that there is some good press for ubuntu soon..
[08:55] <yellabs-r2> :)
[08:58] <Calinou> good press?
[08:58] <Calinou> more like "zomg new mint"
[08:59] <yellabs-r2> what is zomg new mint ?
[08:59] <yellabs-r2> sounds fresh ...
[08:59] <Calinou> mint 15 was released 2 days ago
[09:01] <yellabs-r2> do you like mint more then ubuntu ? or would you like a mint to go with your ubuntu ? :)
[09:01] <Calinou> no, I use xubuntu
[09:01] <Calinou> and mint sucks because it's slow and takes ages to boot
[09:01] <yellabs-r2> lightweight
[09:01] <Calinou> even ubuntu is much faster than mint
[09:04] <yellabs-r2> windows 8 is faster too..
[09:04] <yellabs-r2> :P
[09:05] <yellabs-r2> ah, i still love ubuntu ...
[09:05] <yellabs-r2> but the new chrome boook pixel, its neat too
[09:06] <Calinou> windows 8 is slower than a tweaked xubuntu
[09:06] <Calinou> also, laptops suck
[09:08] <yellabs-r2> its thought that desktop computers will be absolete soon..
[09:09] <Calinou> you got my epic facepalm
[09:09] <Calinou> yellabs-r2: how about comparing desktop vs laptop hardware for more than three seconds?
[09:09] <Calinou> screen sizes?
[09:09] <Calinou> repairability/upgradability?
[09:09] <Calinou> the "tower" PC isn't going to die anytime soon
[09:11] <yellabs-r2> i agree with you , but market say's different, sales of smartphones / tablets are high...  and desktop sales are lower each year..
[09:11] <Calinou> say's => says
[09:12] <yellabs-r2> says *
[09:14] <yellabs-r2> i use old second hand desktops, haven not bought a new one in years ..
[09:16] <yellabs-r2> any way, thanks for the nice talk, i am off to do some work , take care, and have a nice day ..
