Canonical's Ubuntu 9.10, otherwise known as "Karmic Koala," could be for the Linux community what the recently released Windows 7 OS from Microsoft is to the Windows world. Of course, this latest release that replaced Ubuntu 9.04 did not have as much to do in bettering its predecessor as did Windows 7 had in overcoming Vista. Still, no operating system is ever flawless. This latest Ubuntu release fixes some lingering problems and builds in several useful enhancements. Its eye candy is tasty. Its performance is like a sugar rush!
At linpais [linpais.org], we have just added some extra spice to Ubuntu 9.10 by creating a distro that includes lots of extra applications "pre installed", for anyone's taste from graphic to office and audio and video editing. After testing both Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 7 we decided to go for the first.

Just a point, I had no problems with upgrading the Netbook version of Ubuntu to 9.10 on my Aspire one Netbook.
And yes, the desktop switch is still there, I know I used it to see if the regular desktop looked the same in this version. I use my Netbook a lot. The Netbook interface is nice, a great improvement over the last version. It looks like it would also be extremly useful to those with touch screens in their Netbooks.
Again, just my opinion
