I'd like to thank all of the geeks and guests who made it out to The<br>
Warehouse for last night's West Michigan Ubuntu 10.10 Release Party.<br>
I'd especially like to thank Casey DuBois and his wife for hosting the<br>
party at the most marvelous venue in the area, their garage. I had a<br>
great time talking with everybody and trying various beers, and the<br>
food cooked by Casey and brought by attendees was a welcome surprise.<br>
<br>
For those of you who couldn't make it, we had a pretty good turnout of<br>
about 15 people. Most attendees brought a laptop and gave Ubuntu<br>
Desktop 10.10 a go in a virtual machine, or netbooks to install Ubuntu<br>
Netbook directly onto. There weren't a lot of problems with the<br>
installs, other than the usual missing wireless drivers. Hopefully the<br>
Broadcom driver release will clear up some of those problems in the<br>
future. The wifi and Internet held up well under the load. I also did<br>
a short demo of the Netbook version on Casey's 12ft projector (where<br>
does he get those wonderful toys?), but most of the time was spent<br>
talking and socializing around the table as people installed.<br>
<br>
I took a few pictures and added them to the Ubuntu Michigan LoCo<br>
Flickr stream. If anyone else has photos of the event they'd like to<br>
add to the stream, send them to me and I'll get them up.<br>

<br>
I'm looking forward to more of these get-togethers, and I'd like to<br>
see them continue to grow. So if you have any suggestions for next<br>
time, please comment here or send a private email to me. Thanks again!<br>
<br>
P.S.: I spread one piece of information last night that I learned<br>
today is incorrect. I said that you cannot upgrade your current<br>
installation from a CD or USB installer. However, it turns out that<br>
you can upgrade if you use the Alternate CD. If anyone tries this and<br>
meets success or failure, please let me know.<br>
