I'm seriously in two minds here. Debian needs a bit of a shake up, and
Ubuntu has done a good job. It doesn't quite do what I want though, and
takes as much, if not more configuration to get it installed the way I
want (in fact I'm not there yet - I'll have to have a better play with
Xubuntu I think). The main win as far as I'm concerned it better
hardware support for some of the newer chipsets - namely nVidia on the
motherboard (i.e. not the graphics drivers, the networking, SATA, etc.
ones).
