@din, narangz, gautham
Gee... such kind words!!

@shady
Fully agree, din is one of the best behaved "senior" members around (senior as in Senior citizen hehe...)

@unknown
They've said it all. I use both platforms

@gautham
No idea about pulse audio. Mebbe thats better But since its not yet fully stable I'd give some time before drawing a comparison between the two.

^what NOT stable?pulse audio rocks in my Debian.It is very superior to the likes of esd,artsd etc.
and it isnt rocket science installing it.
ubuntu bundles esound-compat packages.so,dont worry.it s easy to install.

Use it to understand it!if u have a good speaker system or a soundcard 5.1 or +,u should really try pulse audio!

Yea, pulse audio is really good. I am really into sound and this was one major area of concern for me. I own a pair of sennheisers and the quality of ALSA was terrible. Thankfully pulseaudio changed all that.. it has basically brought life back into linux sound systems.
