I wanted to let everyone know I was able to get someone to at least try 
out Ubuntu.  I talk to him regular via Pidgin.  His English isn't too 
good but I've told him about Ubuntu and he likes what I've told him 
about it so far.  He's downloaded the current version and pre-ordered 
the CD for Intrepid.  We became good friends because of all of the 
computer help I've been giving him through Pidgin.

But get this ... he's from Myanmar.

Yes, the country Myanmar.  Isn't it wonderful how talking about Ubuntu 
can help foreign relations?  :-)

Anyway, I thought all of you might find that significant.
