Ships with Firefox 3 b5, thought they wouldn't ship beta products personally

I updated my ubuntu the other day, almost got my wireless working with it now!

I've already got Hardy on my laptop (apt-get distro-upgrade ftw), and currently installing under Vista using Wubi.

upgraded via synaptic

I burnt it and tried the Live CD. I see no reason to use it very often.
Also, the pt-br translation is buggy, I guess I should have downloaded some updates.
