Yes i've installed it on my development machine intel dual core using the
x86_64 version.
The installation process is better looking, also it starts installing whilst
your creating your first user login details. Which speeds up the
installation. It also gives you the ability to run the first update within
the installation process which is cool but mean it takes a little bit
longer.
Another cool thing about the installation is that you can click on the
process arrow and it shows the terminal process. You might have been able to
do this in earlier versions ?
It feels quicker and looks slicker than 10.04. I never turn on the Compiz
effects as I find it slows it down to much, I use metacity effects using
"Ubuntu Tweaks". What I have noticed is that if I turn on Metacity
compositing effects, Tuxcart has a noticable lag to it and is unplayable.
Where as in 10.04 metacity compositing didnt effect Tuxcart game.
Another difference is that there is now a bottom and right edge auto scroll
bars on most of the system apps eg "Disc Utility" which I sure were not
there before. I realise this is for the netbook users but its abit
distracting.
The new floppy-to-the-right font is different, not sure about it yet.

Has anybody tried or upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 yet? I tried it on my
old Proliant ML 330e. It buggered it :-( It ran fine with 10.04 but
as soon as 10.10 tried to start all I can get is a CLI instead of my
usual GUI. From the error message I'm getting it seems it must be
something to do with the video driver. The message is:
Fatal server error: no screens found
Then after that
xinit:No such file or directory (errno2)
xinit:No such process errno3: server error
Guess what? I'm stumped. I shall check the log file at
/var/log/Xorg.0.log but it might well be written in Arabic for me.
Looks like going back to 10.04
