Free File - Ubuntu 8.04

Back in April, Ubuntu 8.04 was launched. This latest version of the Linux operating system has a lot to offer. I have been using this new release exclusively on my desktop now for almost two months now. This new alternative to Windows Vista has been running without a hitch. If you are fed up with Microsoft why not give this distribution of LInux a try. Head over to the Ubuntu Website to learn more... The best thing about linux is that its free !!! so you have nothing to loose by giving it a try.

Burlington Pier, originally uploaded by Patio3900.

Currently under construction at Burlington's Spencer Smith Park, this new pier is going to be a major addition to the waterfront. This photo was taken on a evening this week as the fog started to  roll in. I think this just adds to the moon of the shot.
