Installed ubuntu dapper drake desktop for the first time. Before this,
I had only worked with RH based distros.

Installed Apache, MySQL and PHP also. It was a Breeze. 
Overall, only 1 word can describe the entire distro and setup. Sexy.

Had to run putty for an application (ssh and xterm messed up the
function keys) so installed it over wine. Again, a breeze though with
some errors. Which is ok.
One tip: The font looks weird. So you will need to change it to
anything else and it will look fine.
 
I had to install desktop version even though I am using it as a server
because we dont have the luxury of a dedicated server only machine. 
My mandatory question is:
Would it have been better to have installed the server version with
ready LAMP stack and then enabled X?

thanks
abhi
