I had recently installed Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Pawn in my system.
After I had installed it,I found the GNOME enviroment is not bad,although I like KDE a lot.There are updates always from its official website and the apt-get is easy to use.
But the multimedia is quite dissappointing,with less multimedia application which I think wouldn't be good if I want to do any multimedia related acivity.But of course I can get extra program using Synaptic Pacakage Manager or apt-get command.
My pehripherals were easy to be configured,my printer works using CUPS but I haven't tried yet to configure my CanoScan FB 330P which is still working although it had been 10 years old.
The office application is same as others,it had OpenOffice as Office application and the other which I forgoted to mention.Anyway I will update this post with a screenshot from my Ubuntu.
Actually the only office application in Ubuntu is OpenOffice package and Evolution and of course,you could get extra office apps with using apt-get install.
Overall I think Ubuntu is good only in Synaptic Package Manager and it's great support,otherwise it will be same as the other OS.

I just did a fresh install of Feisty Fawn too. It is quite slick and seems stable enough for my use.
But if you feel that it lacks multimedia apps, you might want to give Ubuntu Studio (http://www.ubuntustudio.org/) a try. I haven't played with it yet, but it is supposed to be more geared towards audio and video freaks.
I quit using Ubuntu because of gnome.I need to use the real Nvidia drivers for my monitor. Every couple of weeks gnome would do an update and I would have to compile a new set of Nvidia drivers. I now use SimplyMEPIS. The drivers are built in and I do like KDE better.
THanks,I will try that.
