Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) Pt. 1

I'll be posting a couple more parts to this I'd imagine (that may turn into just 1 other part don't hold me to a definite number).

So Ubuntu 8.10 was released to day - as always, downloads were slow, websites went down, torrents were seeded, the usual (yes the forums went down too - in fact they've just come back online ).

I've in the middle of installing Intrepid on my laptop as I write this, so far it looks nice, not to different visually from Hardy when you first boot the live CD, but there are some differences that I think are noticeable when you finally get around to using them.

Anyway, I've got stuff to be doing and /home directories to be restoring, so I'll post back in a few days when I've been running Intrepid properly!!
