Someone asked opinions on Ubuntu 7.10 I've just installed Kubuntu over a crashed upgrade and had a play so here goes: It is noticeably faster than 7.04. And that beat w2k on the same machine hands down. But don't upgrade unless you know how to repair a system! Its surprisingly easy to use - most things set up sensibly with the minimum of fuss. Most things seem to work out of the box where they should work out of the box - one or two things set up too easily - ie they allow defaults that will be hard to get round later. Mostly its a very big thumbs up. I have one complaint so far - apt-get! If the network drops during download it can get a bit screwed and needs manual intervention to get it back working. The kids of today don't know how lucky they are......
