Re: [orca-list] Audio Walk through for Ubuntu 8.10 intrepid nowavailable

["Robin Kipp" <webmaster robin-kipp de>]

Hi Darragh,
thanks for another excellent walk through! I guess the music at the
beginning wasn't a typical Irish theme, was it? :-)
Just question, could you please tell me where I can get the Intripid
release? On the Ubuntu.com download page I just see Ubuntu 8.04.1 32 and
64 bit and the alternate CD... Thanks for any info!
Robin
