I'm sorry but if you're holding up Ubuntu's default artwork, which hasn't changed significantly since 5.10 and is by many accounts "butt ugly", as something Mandriva should aspire to, then you're seriously out of touch with aesthetics. Mandriva's default themes have always been revolutionary, whether users favor them or not. At least they're not afraid to try something new with each release; unlike Ubuntu. Even with Hardy Heron, the Ubuntu devs have found some excuse to stick with the same ol same ol.
