Easier to use... I wouldn't present that first screen to a newb under any circumstances.

On the other hand it does use KDE

The first screen is what you initially see when you run the 'Live" CD. I have installed it on several PC's and it was very user friendly. The link I provided leads you thru the install process step by step.

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon). Unlike the previous version, this had plug-and-play printer support for the HP printer.

I also had an much easier time installing a wi-fi card.

These are two big tests for any Linux distro.
