Ubuntu goin' gray, like the Mac OS way?
,----[ Quote ]
| A source from inside the Ubuntu team has
| informed a blogger that there will be an
| important announcement coming from
| Canonical regarding a possible rebranding
| of Ubuntu. A lot of enthusiasts are quick
| to speculate that the changes will be all
| about the color schemes used by Ubuntu and
| that it may go from brown to gray.

An Update On The Boot & Power Performance In Ubuntu 10.04
,----[ Quote ]
| In December we wrote that Ubuntu 10.04
| already shortened the boot time, which has
| been a great focus amongst Canonical and
| Ubuntu developers as they strive for a ten
| second boot. A lot has changed since that
| article was published last year, including
| the introduction of Plymouth and many
| kernel mode-setting improvements along with
| the introduction of Nouveau for NVIDIA KMS
| support. We've ran a new boot performance
| comparison on two laptops and a netbook as
| we see how the boot times are looking with
| Ubuntu 10.04 LTS when compared to Ubuntu
| 9.10. We have also looked at how the power
| consumption has changed in the Lucid Lynx
| for these mobile devices.

| service that is currently in use for many
| Ubuntu-related sites, although existing
| Launchpad accounts will continue to work in
