Ubuntu regularly has issues upgrading from one version to another, now
you expect it to "upgrade" to a new distro...  This idea doesn't seem

I agree with this assessment though any ubuntu head will challenge any 
statement like this with such religious fervor...

I'm certainly no ubuntu-head; in fact whilst I run ubuntu on my laptop, I'm very much wedded to Debian stable on my desktop.

When I got this laptop a couple of years ago, I tried Lenny, I think, but had problems, and Ubuntu just worked. I've stuck with it through several dist-upgrades, and have never encountered a problem.

Similarly, I've gone from etch via Lenny to Squeeze without problem.

They're both pretty good; but from what I hear, ubuntu might be going the wrong way...
