I'm very impressed, the improvements in general automated goodness and ease of use are enormous compared to my Feisty upgraded to Gutsy install. It was probably due to my hacking and breaking, but Gutsy really seems to just work. The network-manager has never worked for me, and I'd always fallen back on a manual setup with wpasupplicant to get it to connect to the wireless network I wanted with WPA2 support. On top of this, the restricted modules feature seems to work great, and Nvidia/Compiz works from the get go (though, this has been like this for a while though). I love it!

NextSteve is right. You gotta look way down in the corner and it's real small, but there nontheless. As for Gutsy, I haven't done any upgrades yet. I'll wait till tomorrow when they 'officially' release it, and then I'll probably upgrade from Feisty. Holy Crap! NextSteve is right.
