I am not so bothered about a splashscreen that lasts a couple of seconds. However, I do have to agree that the number of bugs in Ubuntu is starting to become an issue. Every time I install a new version of Ubuntu, something breaks. I find Fedora more reliable, which is aimed as an experimental distribution, than Ubuntu, which is supposedly Linux for the masses. I even found Archlinux more reliable, which is a rolling distro and so inclined to have problems - but at least they're sorted out, and quickly too. While new versions of Ubuntu continue to be released on a specified date, no matter what bugs are still to be resolved, and then the security bugs are mended, leaving the others for the next release, we're all going to run into problems that we're stuck with until the next D-day - when we'll encounter a new set of problems. I'm seriously considering looking at Linux Mint. It's based on Ubuntu, but doesn't make new releases available until it's ready.
