| Ubuntu 13.04 I got Ubuntu 13.04 today. Booted it up Live and played a few with it. I'm not sure if I will install it. Anyone have any thoughts on it?

| Are they still using the Tablet desktop? I just don't like the tablet approach for desktops....I live in fear that Mint will go that way leaving me looking for a new Linux OS...sigh...":O}

| Looks like a tablet desktop to me. I am set in my ways. I want a computer to work like a computer. Mint does this in a very nice way. Though, I must be part bass as I will bite on anything shiny. I have been collecting distributions and learning some about them. Maybe if something happens to Mint I'll know what to do.

| I could only be worse if it was owned by an truly evil corporation and you had to pay for it...":O} But of course your right. Like all Linux it comes as a gift from those who created it. That I and many others don't like it does not diminish that fact.

| Mint really does everything I need and displays everything in fashion that really helps Windows users. I actually like Fedora more... its more stable, but I wasn't all that impressed with Gnome 3 either. I got used to it, but really slowed me down. If anything, Install Fedora 18 and turn off Gnome 3 so it resorts back to Gnome 2 or just install a different desktop manager.

| In what way is Mint 14 less stable? You would be well advised to consider my personal instability before answering!! ":O}

| Ah, I'm not going there... Just saying, in my limited experience with Fedora, I had less problems than with Ubuntu based Operating Systems. Think of it this way... I tried Fedora a few months for gaming and had very little issues, but when I switched to Mint for gaming I had a lot more gaming problems in a few months. But a year later I am having less problems with Mint cause I have been using it every day. So, from the "get-go" Fedora just seems more stable.... thats all
