Wow, how come Ubuntu is *SO* popular? Is it that good? The main page
says it won some awards like best newcomer... Is it "luser-friendly"
like Mandrake? Good GUI setup/tools/apps etc? Or are you people
"ordering" coz its free? LOL

Initially when I stumbled accross it, I ordered coz it was free. And they recomend shipping large numbers so that it is at least comparable to the shipping cost.
But I got hold of a copy before I got thses CDs. These CDs took around a month to arrive.
I've posted a link to my experience of Ubuntu in the first mail. I liked it, I use it (though now, technically, I have overriden the packages with Sarge). I think it is good for an luser. Only glitch was that I could not figure out how to make copies of CDs in Gnome (there is no KDE or any other window manager).

Aditya.
