Grabbing the new Hipchat release on Ubuntu

Thanks to Yuri Sklar for the tip!  There is a new hipchat release and it's mighty fast.

First thing's first.  Uninstall the old stuff.  Hipchat uses a generated deb package so you just have to grep for the name and apt-get remove it.  Uninstalling Adobe AIR is as simple as doing: sudo apt-get remove adobeair.

The new Hipchat client can be installed by following the instructions here.

Essentially, it amounts to adding: deb http://downloads.hipchat.com/linux/apt stable main to the apt-get sources and then installing the apt key.
