“I recently read an article about some “Papercuts” a user
experienced with Ubuntu 9.10, and it inspired me to write about my
thoughts regarding the latest Ubuntu release, four months after its
release.

“Ubuntu 9.10 was reviewed right here on this site. At the time,
I found that the temporary theme wasn’t the greatest thing that
I’ve ever seen, though it was a worthy upgrade to anyone using
9.04. However, since then my experiences with it have changed my
view considerably.

“While I almost completely switched to Arch Linux for all of my
computers, my wife is still an Ubuntu girl, and probably always
will be. She just loves it, and all of her computers run it. She
recently purchased a netbook that came with Windows 7, and she
immediately wanted me to wipe it and put Ubuntu on it. While I
offered to install the UNR version (Ubuntu Netbook Remix) on it she
made it clear that she just wanted standard Ubuntu, and that’s what
I did. In addition, I inherited a netbook as well, though I decided
that I would give the UNR edition a try.”
