Howard,

nice site idea, you should give ubuntu a try =) if you want the bells 
and whistle I say try Kubuntu for KDE, if like gnome try ubuntu, or 
Xubuntu for xfce.

I just thought it would be nice if we posted our install or upgrade 
experience, it might help others who are considering the same thing.

In cases where a new version of a given distro is released, it would be 
helpful to know if others had a easy time or a difficult time with the 
process! Know what failed, what's not up to par, and what's improved.

If it's a bad release, this knowledge will allow others to reconsider 
waiting till the initial bugs are fixed before they attempt to upgrade 
or do a clean install on the latest and greatest!

I have a vmware image running on my laptop, so for me I usually try a 
clean install on there and see how things go, also I can do the upgrade 
and see how that goes. If anything fails I can revert back to a working 
image in a matter of seconds. Others might not have access to a working 
vm image either wmware or virtualbox, due to hardware or disk space 
restriction. Here is where the early adopters can provide a report of 
their experiences.
