Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu "While this release isn't perfect, it's very, very good. I've tried a lot of Linux distributions over the years, and Ubuntu is definitely one of the best. If you're already using Ubuntu, the new release is worth the upgrade. If you haven't tried Ubuntu yet, the Breezy release would be a good time to check in and see what all the fuss is about. It's one of the easiest Linux distros to install, and should serve newbies and Linux gurus well."

That is the nature of reviews of any Operating System, (well, really a review of anything from sculpture to restauarants) is that regardless of the technical merits of the subject of review, it really comes down to subejective experience. What's easy for one person is a pain in the neck for someone else and so on and so forth. For every person that will write - sincerely I might add - that the OS they use is the best in the land, there will be as many sincere horror stories that is the worst. One experience is no valid than the other really, but the only way to know whether something is good for you, is to try it. Obvious truism but there you are. Having said that, reviews are a good way of helping to draw up a short list of distros (or whatever else)you may want to try, for whatever reason, so they serve a purpose of sorts.
