I was gutted that my Hardy Heron died two weeks before the release of Lucid. I swapped over to Debian, but use the LTS elsewhere. I treat other Ubuntus as Betas.
I gave Ocelot a whirl this eve, and it's much better than my experience with the 10.04 netbook edition. The window management is more consistent. It feels more cohesive.
Anyway after some initial excitement, I broke it without much effort.
I'd pretty much written off Ubuntu, but think the next LTS could be pretty good - if they iron out all the bugs, and listen to the community.

The online tour really makes me like Unity, but of course that is too brief an impression. Might have to give it a spin on a home machine.
I used to upgrade religiously every 6 months, from 7.10 to 10.04LTS. Been waiting for next LTS to upgrade work machines.
I've been sticking to 10.04 LTS for quite some time.
I'm finally starting to appreciate the old adage 'If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it'.
LTS works ultra-reliably.

All my VMs run 10.04. Been thinking that when it gets too old due to the packages supported getting to far out of date, I'll just switch to Debian.
