I'm loving what there is to read about Pulse Audio, but there is a bunch of other features set to make their debut in 8.04 (some of which I probably am not even aware of).

So, what features stand out to you in this next release of Ubuntu?

(P.S., I read on Wikipedia that the GUI isn't getting a face lift until 8.10. Is this true?)

Well I Tried It And It Sucks -{Even Though Its Not Finished Yet}

It Uses LOADS Of RAM And Wastes System Resources.:(

Do You Have To Typ With A Capital Every Word?!

Xorg 7.3 will definitely make the switch for me :)

You must not have tried the Hardy alpha I tried then because the one I tried was very stable. So needless to say I can't wait for 8.04. :)
No idea what feature I'm most looking forward to. Just looking forward to getting my hands on it and trying it out.

Wireless has worked flawlessly with intel 4965 and the x3100 graphics chip as been imporved a lot. Despite what trolly mctrollerson said, Hardy has been extremely stable and has loads of great new features.

Things I like most? New kernel which contains loads more drivers, pulseaudio, new theme, gvfs etc etc

A working libc6...updating yesterday resulted in unbootable systems because libc6 is broken.

Some messageboard software turns posts in all caps into funny caps. It's probably that.

Aw, I was going to say that, although for me, it was today (GB mirror).
