Nice, non fan buoy, review. Reviews like that are the type that move those sitting on the fence to "give it a try".

His remarks about the older hardware issues are well placed for laptop users. Desktop users have not had many hardware issues since 6.04 (when I started using Ubuntu) simply because they could get compatible cards and swap them out.
And it is time that the laptop users are brought into the fold with as much ease.

Good news. I hope that Ubuntu continues to get the exposure that it deserves.
