Looks like I got Schwartzed. I guess now I'll have to leave my Laptop at home ! Re-reading my post - it's interesting that my motivations for lugging a laptop were : "catch up with Tivo", "maybe do some work", (and adding a third) make phone calls with Skype*. Maybe that is the PC's salvation - high-end portable entertainment for travelling executives. Anyway, I'll try and blog my experiences.



*also intersting is that I keep a Windows partition on my Ubuntu laptop just so I can make cheap calls with Skype !

"Schwartzed"? Rich, I think you just invented a new lingo buzzword :-) Very trendy, concise & apt. Potential to catch on among the blogmasses. (new entry on Wikipedia, anyone?). Cheers, Atul

Hmm, I just found out that Skype is available for Ubuntu (as a Debian package). I've just installed it (1.3 beta) - you can download it from http://skype.com/download/linux. Neat. That's one less Windows laptop.
