Well, I never thought I would be doing a post like this. Then again, I never thought I would be bothering with a web log to begin with. (Come to think of it; why the heck am I?). Oh well, here goes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I received a bunch of Powered by Ubuntu stickers in the mail today, courtesy of System76<\/a> and the Ubuntu Canada team<\/a>. About ten seconds after opening the envelope and looking at the stickers, I accidentally dropped the things. They were disappeared for a full six hours (and I counted!) before I finally found the strip of stickers somehow stuck to the wall directly above where I was first looking. Given the significant personal loss, I must now use these stickers very wisely in order to make up for it. That’s one sticker per hour of intense anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far, the one on my laptop is quite satisfying! I wasn’t completely sure given how thin the sticker is (and that it’s plastic as opposed to metal), but in the end it seems to be sticking quite well. A nice contrast between the sleek \/ slender Ubuntu sticker and the old Vista sticker!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
