I'd better start by admitting that I'm a fan of KDE. It's not because it works like Windows, but for the quality of the tools available. However, a GUI is just a way of doing something and I think I've been a bit dismissive of the Gnome desktop up to now. I read a few reviews of Ubuntu, looked at their web site and decided to have a look. I wanted a general purpose (desktop) distribution and an opportunity to get to know the Gnome utilities.

No distro I've tried has everything the way I want it, perhaps he should actually spend a few minute finding out how to adjust things to his liking then use it for a couple of weeks before writing the review.
For the record, I managed to install Ubuntu without formatting my /home partition so it is possible. I admit their partitioning tool could be a bit easier to use though.
As to the distro needing more work, they have only made one stable release, you can't expect anyone to do things perfectly the first time around.
