It's the first linux distro/version that I'm actually using extensively, so I don't have much to compare it to.

I have a couple issues in it of running extremely slower than XP did for equivalent tasks and of occasional complete crashes, but those are likely related to my terrible hardware. I also dislike some of the software choices in it, but heavily using Synaptic fixed that hundreds of packages later.

The use of more purplish and white/grey colors than orange is a nice change in default color scheme. hocuspocus;

Uh why is everybody talking about the theme so much? It's easy to customize the theme so.. yeah I don't what the big deal is a nice default theme. I haven't used Ubuntu (GNOME), I've install Xubuntu 10.04 though. Works great, gets shit done. Cool.

Even though it's just a skin, I'm enjoying the netbook remix.

Just about everything can be easily customized, but it's best to have fewer things you have to customize for things to work and look nicely
And so there can exist complaints regarding other things like the replacement of Pidgin with Empathy, exclusion of certain drivers, etc.

I understand Ubuntu is aimed more towards "it just works" people rather than the DIY people.

Yo linux guys should i install Ubuntu 10.04 on my netbook or Linux Mint 9
i can't decide lol they are both so awesome (and similar ahhh)

I think Mint is easier because it already comes with things like flash and mp3 support.
