[Leaplist] quick opinions - ubuntu vs. mint

[Hank Lambert]

I am running Mint 7 on my laptop and love it. It seems like It has a  
strong support following per their forums, although I haven't needed  
help yet - it just works. I'm not sure that Mint 8 is stable though, I  
think it's still developement.
