“So much so, in fact, that I am starting to prefer using my
Ubuntu “Jaunty Jackalope” desktop over the similarly slick Windows
7 beta (which I am currently running full-time on one desktop) and
Mac OS X Leopard operating systems, which I also use regularly.“I left Windows Vista, XP and even Debian lying bruised and
battered by the roadside some time ago.“You won’t be able to notice the vast improvement in Ubuntu’s
desktop experience over the past six months by browsing screenshot
galleries of 9.04 or looking at new feature lists. What I’m talking
about is that elusive slick and speedy feel you get from
applications launching fast, windows moving around without
jerkiness and everything simply being where it should be in the
user interface.”
