Mandriva One 2009 (GNOME) has replaced Ubuntu 8.04 on my PC. 
Boy, what an OS this has turned out to be.
hehehe that is what I did...only I went from Linux Mint 6 to Mandriva 2009 GNOME on both. However now on the HDD that MDV 09 was on, I have tried CrunchBang Linux which is based on Ubuntu. But like I was telling Chris, it is good but Granular just seems to work better. Even with KDE vs the OpenBox WM, Granular seems better.
So I will probably put Mandriva 09 back on that HDD maybe....I am eyeing a new 80G drive for the testbed laptop. That may get Granular since it is a new drive and then I may put Mandriva (MDV) on that 40G
