I installed Hardy in my Lenovo Y410 half an hour ago. Most hardware (monitor, video card, wireless card, wireless mouse, webcam, etc.) work out of box, but like 7.10, the sound card still requires some efforts to make it work. In software, Gimp is upgraded to 2.4.5, OpenOffice.org now is in version 2.4 and Firefox 3 beta 5 is installed as default.

After 3 days playing with Ubuntu 7.10, Gutsy Gibbon, I would say that I am not very satisfied with it; the ratio between excitement and disappointment is 4 to 6.
