Succumbing to the temptation, I upgraded to [:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades|Edgy ] on my laptop. It wasn't all that smooth ride, but was somehting that was to be expected.
At first, it was the X not willing to start, and then some more issues. While re-compiling the Kernel for Centrino, I hit upon [:http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download#currentrelease|this this issue] like many other there.
Edgy comes with the latest Firefox - Firefox 2.0 (saves time we'd have spent on building one), more recent Evolution and some more goodies. The start up screen, though, by default does a Microsoft by hiding the startup notifications.
