Since Linux Mint is just a variant of Ubuntu (if you don't get the Debian edition, that is.), their a lot alike, but the biggest difference is the user interface, and what's included with your installation package.

Linux Mint Katya and Ubuntu Natty Narwhal
I've been experimenting with Linux Mint lately, and I have to say that I like it much more than Ubuntu.

New laptop!
Huzzah!
I've just ordered myself a new laptop!
It's a Lenovo Ideapad b570, it comes with 4GB of RAM, a 500GB HDD and a 15.6 inch screen. (I'm going to add another 2GB of RAM).
It comes with Windows 7 preinstalled, but I'm going to install Ubuntu on it, and leave a 75gb Windows partition for gaming and using programs that I can't get to work through Wine.
This will be my first "new" computer, since all of my older ones have been hand-me-downs from my family.
I can't wait until it gets here!
