The packaged installed glitch-free and worked first time, no problem.
Graphically, despite the low resolution, the light tan background and
chocolate Ubuntu logo really look a lot more pleasing and refined,
despite the simplicity. I love it.
The lack of kernel messages is great, but the complete lack of text is
not. It's a bit too minimalistic. A simple "System is starting up,
please wait..." between the logo and the progress bar, would be a nice
addition.

But sadly, and although I can't remember the specifics, the choice of a
black background for usplash, was made because of technical reasons, not
artistic ones, so I doubt it will change.

But other than that, works fine on mly old machine with a crappy CRT
monitor.
