I might give her a one second window to change the boot option to Vista :) Of course it was my charm!! I told her how nice Brazil is, how beautiful the girls are, how I had loads of time before my flight and was happy to discuss it with her and all her supervisors.

"In São Paulo they tried to charge me R$72 extra which they finally waived..." What changed their minds? Your undoubted charm? Or did you slip someone $75 to overlook the issue? :) (It can be difficult figuring out foreign currency) When you add Ubuntu to Flavia’s computer, don’t forget to make it the default, so she has to select Vista if she really needs it.
