I have been very happy with my factory installed Kubuntu Dell 1525n for the 
past year.  I as well as the rest of our group stayed with 8.04 since KDE was 
not adequately supported by the more recent Ubuntu releases.  One of our more 
adventurous members went to 8.10 but was back to 8.04 in a week.  He says he 
will not ever again update first and talked other fellow out of trying 9.04.  
Perhaps it will be ready by 10.04, whats that?  Leaping Lemming?
