[QUOTE="PoloMint, post: 441845, member: 175235"] Yes, from reading the forums I got the impression that it could handle complicated server setups like you seem to have Topper, but when it comes to something 'simple' like a non-native screen resolution in full colour things seem to start to break down. The crashing/firefox thing really surprised me, and I would have been willing to carry on fixing other things had it not been for that, but, like I said if a Windows system could be crashed that easily there would be outcry. I think for Ubuntu to make it into the more mainstream usergroups people are going to have to iron out these little problems so potential users can see just what is underneath. A lot of people are becoming aware of Ubuntu who are not big computer enthusiasts and don't have any particular need to get it to work - if they encounter any of the problems I did they will not be impressed.
