It worked flawlessly. Thanks. Had trouble with the fonts, but fixed that by Googling some solutions. I needed to create a local ~/.fonts.conf file and I found the correct content on Ubuntu forums. For some reason, on my systems, I need "hintingslight" for the fonts to look good. The only real worry was when automatic updates wanted to "update" the version of Firefox on my system to an older one. Just let it update - they seem to coexist OK, and everything is fine. I highly recommend using VirtualBox OSE (or equivalent) for testing things you're not sure about. It certainly beats hosing your system. Regarding all these arguments about the best way to do it. Who cares? Choose the way that works best for you. I do. I'm relatively new to Ubuntu and Linux, but I have managed to replace Windows in my entire business in less than a year! The flexibility of Linux is unbeatable, and the Open Source community support beats being stuck on the phone with M$oft for hours.
