Yes, it all sounds good - no pun intended - but I really hope the fine release puts the accent on quality. Earlier today I installed Gutsy Gibbon, rebooted, ran the updater to install three months' worth of Ubuntu's own updates as their own updater kindly suggested immediately the login came through, rebooted ... and no PC because no initrd. Turns out that a bug that's been around for a while, well known but uncorrected, in their kernel update package does this. Bugs in kernel packages that produce "install and explode" really are a complete no-no. Withdraw package from repos right away, etc. So I'm back to Debian Lenny where I think I'll stay, punished for straying. I wish all the best to Hardy Heron but if Ubuntu wants to continue to gain share among the masses the basics matter more than the bling, imho. A lot more.
