[I'm condensing Ubuntu reviews because the vast majority is good
but repetitive. It was a great release (upstream too, so other
distros will be the same).]

Tracking The Performance Of Ubuntu 10.10

,----[ Quote ]
| With the development of Ubuntu 10.10 
| (codenamed the "Maverick Meerkat") getting 
| started and the Ubuntu Developer Summit 
| coming up in just a matter of days, we have 
| re-launched the Ubuntu Phoromatic Tracker 
| to monitor the performance of Ubuntu 10.10 
| on a daily basis.
| 
| We originally launched the Phoromatic 
| Ubuntu Tracker back in March that began 
| tracking Ubuntu's performance on a daily 
| basis late into Lucid's development cycle, 
| but a package upgrade a few weeks into it 
| had borked the installations. We have now 
| loaded up clean installs of Ubuntu on the 
| test systems that are now tracking the 
| Ubuntu Maverick repository, albeit so far 
| is just some updated GCC packages.

Window indicators

,----[ Quote ]
| The Ayatana Indicators work has given us a 
| crisp, clean basis for indicators in the 
| panel. Weâve said they will all look a 
| particular way, and behave a particular 
| way. And weâve said they will be placed on 
| the right of the panel.

Ubuntu One Music Store: iTunes for Linux 

,----[ Quote ]
| The Ubuntu 10.4 release marks a number of 
| large improvements and features. One such 
| feature is the addition of the Ubuntu One 
| Music Store - the iTunes for Linux. Of 
| course this is Linux, so it does iTunes one 
| better. The Ubuntu One Music Store is 
| comprised of a few pieces and in this 
| article I am going to show you how to put 
| them all together in order to create a very 
| user-friendly, music-filled experience.

Unscrewing Your Failed Ubuntu 10.04 Upgrade (a.k.a. "It's all my fault, honey!")

Itâs the fat that makes you look fat

| Never clean out your closet. I did, and 
| finally found the three original Ubuntu 
| 6.06 ShipIt disks I ordered years ago, 
| hiding under an empty CD spindle. And of 
| course, having those in hand, I started 
| thinking about the Ubuntu of four years 
| ago, and the Ubuntu of now, and wondering.â

| 
| I also mention this because the 10.04 
| system I run in that photo is also 
| exceptionally chunky â chunky to the point 
| of grinding to a halt if I try to do too 
| many things at once. This is obviously an 
| issue of available memory and I donât 
| necessarily fault Gnome for it, but I do 
| know that if I use Firefox and try to 
| transfer large files across USB, the system 
| more-or-less freezes until one or the other 
| is finished. Network transfers are likewise 
| sketchy, when the memory load is high.
