Ubuntu is installed on the desktop now. There was a scary moment when the boot order made the screen fill with repetitions of "GRUB".
Got it sorted out through some very counterintuitive means.
Both the laptop and desktop retain their XP installations. This is really a familiarization with Linux than a full-on conversion.
The desktop, being a much more capable machine is showing me more of the promise of Ubuntu than the laptop is showing of the Xubuntu. For one thing, Open Office works fine on the desktop.
Ubuntu is an odd mix of Mac and XP. I think I like it, but I have only just gotten my toes wet.
