Successful upgrade to Ubuntu 5.10

A few weeks ago I did an amazing thing. I fully updated to the next version of
Ubuntu from over the network. I still can't believe it's possible and it is
another great reason why you should use this OS.

The steps I took are roughly as follows:
-Adjust my apt sources list so that the codename hoary was adjusted to breezy.
-Run synaptic, select smart upgrade and click apply.
-One day, and 500 mb of download limit, later my system was quite happily
running Ubuntu "Breezy Badger" 5.10.

I thoroughly recommend this OS to anyone new to the linux world with a decent
internet connection.
