Upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04

I just upgraded my Ubuntu from 7.10 to 8.04 via online upgrade method. It is still a release candidate but is stable enough. In fact, this is the perfect time to upgrade because all the servers are going to be jammed after the "final" version is released; and, there will be only minor updates between the RC version and the final version in April 24.

The whole process took less than 2 hours, and it is just amazing how smooth it went.

Update: I also upgraded my Sony laptop, which took a bit longer (6 hours or so). The results are very good. The new version seems to be more laptop-friendly, probably due to the new kernel.
