Re: Wubi on 12.04

 

Hi Jeremy,

whilst not the biggest fan of Wubi either, it is a useful tool for a
certain group of people. It certainly gives a better taste of Lubuntu than
trying to run it of a LiveCD. As such, Wubi is an important option for
people to try the ubuntu flavours out on a windows machine. The Wubi people
do a good job of keeping it stable.

regards.

Phill.
