You must  have gotten 7.04, Fiesty Fawn, just before 7.10. Gutsy   
Gibbon, came out. And now  you have moved all your files. Don't  
despair, though, as soon as you let those 123 updates run, you will  
get a chance to update to the more secure and more WiFi capable release.

I also think that for the regular user, Ubuntu is the way to go. So  
much is built into it that requires an extra program in other  
distros. Yesterday I wanted to get some stuff off of a  .mac iDisk.  
In the past I had to use Cadaver and the command line for this. In  
Ubuntu I just used the Places menu.
