Things haven't gone well from the startup splash dialogue. It asked for my name, name of the box, password; unfortunately I said ask for password on console. When it restarted I couldn't log in. I had it start in grub and then boot into a root shell and after poking around discovered my login was my first name in lower case and not my full name I previously entered. Then figuring out in desktop mode how to update the distro was a PITA. Then I had to reenter my password with each admin/settings dialog. Stupid desktop - takes five times longer to do any admin. On the plus side, it's a fast little box.
