Hi Paul
I am also new on this list as well.
I have been using Linux for a bit thou and mainly use kubuntu just because of I like KDE over Gnome, but would have to agree when ever I use windows it just feels slower.
Hope that you stick with Linux and enjoy what it offers
Regards Ian Porter

Hi All
I am Head of Software Engineering at validus (http://www.validus-ivc.co.uk) in Norwich. I recently switched from Windows Vista to Ubuntu 9.10 desktop as more and more of the applications I am running on Windows will run anywhere and I wanted something faster and more stable and also wanted to add a new string to my bow. I've tried to switch to Linux on a number of occasions over the years, but this is the only time I've stuck with it. In fact going back to Windows, as I will have to when I return to work in a week, feels horrible and slow now.
I am also moving my hosted webserver to my own webserver at home running Ubuntu 9.10 server.
I joined the LUG primarily to try and get some help with some issues I'm having, but I will put those into separate emails. For those of you interested, you can read my blog here: http://paulgrenyer.blogspot.com.
