Can you tell me what you think of 8.0 so far?  I am new to Linux, just
installed 7.3 as my first Linux a couple weeks ago.  I'm still learning and
playing at this point.  I have read that the 8.0 desktop upset some people for
not being "open" enough.  What are the pros and cons of upgrading right away to
8 for a newbie?

Feel free to post your response if you think it will be of group interest.

Thanks, Dan Steeves
