     Congratulations.  I've been playing with Ubuntu Hoary on my t43p.
This weekend I may try out Ubuntu Breezy.  I've been keeping a sort of
diary of the experience - everything I do on the box, everything I
try, what problems I run into, etc.  I have some hazy idea of cleaning
it up and putting it on the web, sometime.  I think a lot of linux
users forget some of the pain they go through :-).  If you're
interested, I'll be happy to forward you a copy of what I have so far.
