Strangely perhaps, because Ubuntu for > me now seems too perfect (I know)... If when you say 'another operating system' you mean 'a different linux flavour' you might wish to try Arch Linux. http://www.archlinux.org/ That is, if you wish to dig deeper and learn more (and perhaps get less done ;-) ). For instance, installation won't get you an a desktop environment. You'll have to choose which one you want and then set it up. >From http://www.archlinux.org/about/ "Arch Linux is an independently developed, i686/x86-64 general purpose GNU/Linux distribution versatile enough to suit any role. Development focuses on simplicity, minimalism, and code elegance. Arch is installed as a minimal base system, configured by the user upon which their own ideal environment is assembled by installing only what is required or desired for their unique purposes. GUI configuration utilities are not officially provided, and most system configuration is performed from the shell by editing simple text files. Arch strives to stay bleeding edge, and typically offers the latest stable versions of most software.
