Default Ubuntu 8.04 - Opinions?

Just got this, it seems pretty good, it works with my wireless card out of the box and the onboard audio works fine. With the EnvyNG script as well makes very easy to install drivers even on this 64 bit rig!

You're kidding right???

Picked up all my drivers. Not to keen on the install to a windows folder. Prefer the traditional way.
