"Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) arrived just a few days ago with promises of better hardware compatibility, included proprietary software and drivers, and more user friendliness. Was it wort the wait? And more importantly - Is it finally time to "Make the Switch"?" Read the review here. Elsewhere, "First thoughts on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn" was published at ZDNet. Update: A reply article to the two linked above.

The results will be different depending on whether the 100 users:
- Haven't used a computer before.
- Are Windows users.
- Are Mac users.
The Windows and Mac users will be looking for ways to do what they're using to doing in their usual OS. That means that the only way to avoid them looking confused is for the Linux UI to be very similar to what they've already used. The first group is the easiest, and best judge, as you're finding out what is truly most (or least) intuitive for someone who isn't already "trained" a certain way.
The problem is, the vast majority of people who could use a computer fall in the second and third groups.
