Ubuntu 64 bit, about 2 years on the computer with upgrades. Speed is awesome. Might just because my hardware so much faster than the one that died a natural death. Skype. There were some issues with this but it simply installs now. Flash. Flash is still buggy. If you remove all flash support and install the beta flash player directly it works OK. Package manager keeps moving me back to the 32 wrapper version though. Wrapper version is 'mostly' OK.
