I love Ubuntu! I got my 6.06 LTS CD(s) in the mail the other day, and I'm very happy with it so far. DVD playback, wmv, and others aren't available out of the box - but it's easy enough to setup with totem-xine and the likes. Plus, the nvidia driver install is a breeze with the nvidia-glx package.

Anyway, give it a shot, it's the only thing I have on my computer now - it was either that or an illegal copy of Windows XP Home.

I'd say go for it if you haven't already. I find it fairly easy to configure and use.

I didn't see the netinstall question answered, but last I used Ubuntu(5.10) it did have net install so I'm pretty sure they continued the trend.

Ubuntu is good, but not good enough to tear me from my arch and pacman
