A month ago I wrote a review on Ubuntu's 7.04 version and in it I promised a second look once the final version was to released. Feisty Fawn was released last week and as it seems so far, it is one of the most (if not the most) successful Linux distro release ever. This means that we can't help it but compare it with XP and Mac OS X, after having tested it in 3 laptops and 2 desktops in my lab.

What was their excuse for breaking usb and media:// in 6.06 for months then? People I know *had* to migrate to get around these issues - migrate to other versions of linux or to Edgy.
Seriously - I think ubuntu has done a lot of great work making linux accessable by "the people," but they have a history of simply not fixing semi-major and show-stopper bugs until release+1. This is one of the most major drawbacks of the 6 month release cycle.

I don't like the way ubuntu does their cycle fiesty is a release canidate right now. It's not really finished till gutsy comes out. That is why you download and get a crapload of updates and fixes. So if you want stability stay a release back or use debian.
