I ran into a lot of X-related problems with 10.04, such as odd LCD screen resolutions could not be made to work. Other than this X stuff, 10.04 was quite OK. 12.04 works MUCH better in that regard, supporting every LCD I've tried. There is a nasty problem with the Unity window manager, I just couldn't get it to work like **I** wanted. So, I made it use the gnome-classic manager, but you have to hack one file to increase the window borders so you can stretch windows. (By default, the borders are ONE pixel wide, and VERY hard to grab with the cursor.) Otherwise, it works very well.
There's no need to hop on the bleeding edge of new software releases. I thank the crazies who have to have the latest, as they are the ones who wring all the bugs out. By the time I get around to a new OS, all the bugs and fixes are well-documented, all you need is a couple keywords and a Google search turns up the steps to fix it.
