I'll still be in the mood to pop a disk in or boot from a usb drive to
try something new on a computer.

Alias, I was a bit miffed with Mint 9 which I tried installing on a
colleague's computer, a Dell Studio something-or-other laptop. everything
was fine but there was some network problem. worked alright but he had to
restart the network each time he booted in.

some student ran it off an ubuntu disk and no problem! the student claims
ubuntu is really catching up with Mint in ease of installation, hardware
recognition. I think the fellow now has Win 7 as well as Mint and Ubuntu.

he blew me away because he insisted on trying to install ubuntu himself -
did so, no problem. uncommonly adventurous.

Mint 10 has been out for awhile and has a lot of improvements over 9.
