ReviewâUbuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal

,----[ Quote ]
| The Ubiquity installer is getting much smarter and understandable
| with every incremental release. People new to Linux (who fear
| messing up their existing OS while doing a dual-boot installation), 
| and those who donât understand what swap space is, or how much they 
| need of it, will like Ubiquity. This installer is quite impressive; 
| it guides you at every step, letting you know whatâs happening, what
| you might want to do, and how it can be done. It detects whether youâre
| installing on a system with an existing Windows installation, or 
| upgrading from an earlier Ubuntu install, etc. It also has an expert 
| partitioning option for experienced Linux users. Once you enter the 
| required choices, the installer begins copying files in the background, 
| while you fill in additional information like the time zone, user details 
| and more. The migration assistant, too, works flawlessly, and migrates your
| documents, pictures, user settings and so on without any hassle. You can 
| also choose to install third-party software like Flash, MP3 codecs, Java, 
| etc. Installation is not much speedier. Boot time from a live USB was less than 
| a minute on a Core2Duo laptop, and two minutes on my netbook.
