I switched to xcompmgr - it works quite stable. Firefox - b5 is COMPLETELY unusable, sometime I get a feeling that no on had ever run it before releasing. I downloaded b4 (without flash) and had just a couple crashes (veeery goood!) for few months. Epiphany is veery stable, but is so primitive, missing some features.

Frankly, I don't understand all the talks above about marketing - we need to sell computers with ubuntu, etc. Don't you wonder, why Apple doesn't bother selling Dell's with Mac OS X? Because it just works. People will buy it anyway: for money, with losing most of their freedom, with disagreement to management process behind it, but they buy and forget for some time about crashes, kernel compilations ( please, don't tell me it's not required: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/191137 ). They just use it. As for me it is absolutely impossible with current state of ubuntu - I always MUST care about my OS. setup - configure fonts, compiz, ff, etc.. (I care of my freedom and don't have a mac (yet?))

If you really want to help ubuntu fix/report bugs, share configuration that works, all people need is a good product - they will get it anyway, even if windows is installed by default.
