Been using Ubuntu 14.04 at home since it's release (still Windows 7 at work) and I bloody love it.
Every previous iteration of Ubuntu has caused me grief eventually, and I have ended up switching back to Windows, but I actually think this one's a keeper, anybody else?

Not Ubuntu but Fedora - 7 years on it...

Messed about with Fedora years ago, when you still had to 'dial up' your USB broadband modem.
I recall being able to setup up Fedora to dial it up on computer startup, whereas on Windows you had to use the GUI after logging in etc, really minor but made me really happy.
How is it these days?

It maybe that I got used to it but I find it very comfortable to use in everyday work (documents, mail, graphics). For development I use Visual Studio running in VirtualBox using seamless window, so I do not feel Windows at all...

I use it occasionally but only for Linux development and yes I like this version a lot, it just keeps getting better.
If first you don't succeed, hide all evidence you ever tried!

Cool, still got Windows 7 on a VM with full hardware acceleration for when I need it, but finding myself needing it less and less.
I have an AMD processor and graphics card, this seems to be the first version which doesn't run like sh*t on AMD lol

I've always had a lot of problems with monitor sizing using Ubuntu on VirtualBox, it's a lot better now.

I tried Ubuntu at home awhile back. Got everything installed and updated and then popped a movie DVD in the drive. It wouldn't play it. After some searching I found out you had to open a root shell and do some stuff in there to get a special package to support that. For me it was no big deal, but it made it clear why Linux has not yet taken over the desktop for the general user

If your concept ever reaches the brains of the big players, the game will truly change.
I'm not expecting radical differences tomorrow morning, but if they ever do get your ideas in place, wow, we will have a significantly different landscape.

That's important data. Thanks.
Ubuntu has always been "aallllmmost there" for me.

I've found their desktop to be klunky. What's new in 14.04? I guess I'll take a gander.
At the end of the day, everything I do in *nix ends up being done in a terminal window. Or in RubyMine under Windows. There are just so many little things about Windows that you come to appreciate when dealing with somebody else's half-baked desktop.

Does it include a browser which will do the full HTML 5 spec ?

What about Visual Studio 2013 and/or Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls?
These are my 2 survivals Applications!

I totally agree with you. The difference is I am still with VS 2012.
Let's not forget to mention other mandatory applications like BF4 and Wow.
Microsoft ... the only place where VARIANT_TRUE != true

Indeed, those must be supported!

Hmmm, the Japanese cleans the stadium, and I guess that the French sprayed the stadium with eau de cologne afterwards

Must agree here...
IGNORE OLD SIG. Working on new, and much more awesome website.

I like the comment: "Hypothesaurus Rex"! 
But...the book isn't out till september, (as Randal has been saying for weeks http://blog.xkcd.com/2014/03/12/what-if-i-wrote-a-book/[^]
And it's got new stuff, and undated / revised versions of the web material.
