Hello, I've been using Ubuntu and Kubuntu for over a year now, I'm waiting for Dapper Drake to be officially release, but for this few months left I'm going to use Mandriva 2006, not because I want to change but because I want to try it, see if it's every bit as goog as they say it is. Let me tell you that I'd use Mandrake 8 quite a few years ago, and the installer has always been very user frendly; only because it's a graphic installer not for anything else, and now the installer is as good as it was (not better). It boots very quick, but I'm not a boot-speed geek, as long as it doesn't hang when I'm using it Idon't care if it takes 10 min to load, so for me that's not a strong point. I find it very easy to use; not as easy as Kubuntu, though. Either way, I'll return to Ubuntu when Dapper Drake is out, I won't leave the forum either, I'm just trying some other flavors of Linux. I just wanted to let you know.

You'll be back! You will wake up in the middle of the night.. sweaty, gasping for breath: "UBUNTUUUUU!!!"

Hehe.. good luck. Hope you'll be back soon :)
