David,

With respect, I don't think your comparisons are very fair.

You are comparing the latest Ubuntu with versions of two other
distributions which are at least 18 months old.

Would it not have been fairer to have compared this distro with the
latest Mandrake and SUSE ones? I am in no way either boosting these two
distros or degrading Ubuntu, just feeling that the playing field is not
very level.

To mis-quote a well-known political saying, "Eighteen months is a long
time in Linux!"

Cheers

Keith
