9.10 works perfectly OK on my Toshiba Satellite L40 - including wireless and
also on my Tosh Netbook NB100.
What IS broken is the Samba implementation, which means that access to
Windows 7 shares varies from normal to impossible!

I've been put off trying 9.10 myself because of all the bad things I've
heard.
- Rushed release.
- Things broken.
- Instability/poor performance
I think 9.10 is Vista... hopefully they'll bring out a Win 7 next :)

P.S. Yes, I know how ironic (or perhaps silly?) it is to compare Linux
to Windows in that way (that way being one's wank, the other good) :p
and I know it will annoy some people.. so in anticipating... here's
two fingers :p lol

 I just have to ask... What have they done with all this 9.10 release
of
 Ubuntu / Kubuntu...
 When I was using 9.04 (Just Ubuntu) stuff just worked, but I decided to
 give Ubuntu and Kubuntu 9.10 a whirl (again) and it's not been a smooth
 ride..
 Wifi in 9.04, worked lovely, but in 9.10 Wifi, what Wifi? And even the
 Restricted hardware driver thing that did the job of sorting the Wifi
 drivers out in 9.04, isn't working correctly in 9.10 (Kubuntu) (there
 appears to have been bugs logged about this).. I'm just concerned that
 things that did work, now aren't!!!
 Has anyone else had similar experience?
 Dave
