Yes, I understand all that.... but this is a month shy of a year later for
something as basic as wireless.

And something else....

Setting up sound for a rosegarden like application in Vista is difficult
In Ubuntu it is a nightmare.... I've spent hours and hours trying to get it
to work - and when I resort to installing Ubuntu studio - it does not
support wireless and the interface... to me.... sucks.

You know - I'm all for promotion of Linux - but its hard to be out there
promoting Linux when basic stuff like wireless and sound is difficult as
hell (I got rosegarden to actually make a sound once.. and never again)

Perhaps this is a bridge too far for you guys?

The standard desktop functions nicely but perhaps one should concentrate on
the basics instead of Compiz....
