[Opensource] Ubuntu - Disk Usage Analyzer

[Cameron Bell]

I did my school laptop friday arvo during happy hour  (needed some 
wind-down time) and was very impressed with the install - especially the 
user profile migration. That was by far the easiest install I have ever 
done of any Linux flavour. The inclusion of the wireless applet had me 
connected to eduPaSS in the time it took me to recall how to extract the 
pem files from the .p12 certificates.
Definitely looking forward to using it on Monday and having a look at 
the analyzer - thanks for the heads up.
