As was to be expected, a flurry of reviews of Ubuntu Dapper Drake, released yesterday. LinuxForums reviews
Ubuntu and
Edubuntu/Kubuntu, while ReviewLinux
sticks to just plain Ubuntu:
"Dapper Drake is a huge step forward since Breezy Badger. I was impressed in many ways. The package management got even better than before. The artwork is fantastic. The networking features are great. Gnome is fast and responsive, and the desktop is full of little applets, applications and shortcuts which make it very easy to do most common things."

-Partioning during install is really messed up, it either fails to create file systems or makes gazillions of 0 byte partitions, I had to do it myself.

-Language support not downloaded automatically like in previous releases.
-Including incomplete icon theme as default.
-File sharing really broken, Samba doesn't work at all, SSH with Nautilus crashes twice a second.
-Half of the KDE apps just crash randomly.
-Video playback really messed up, strange colours in Totem-Gstreamer, Xine and Mplayer, only VLC works fine. I've seen this bug on Launchpad day before the release and it seems it's an issue for many Intel integrated graphics chipset users.
I'm really dissapointed with this release, even flights/betas were more stable
