I second that. I've recently given it a two-week trial and gone back to my
Debian sid/KDE system but it's definitely a good start for a newbie. Since
Ubuntu is Debian-based, I might actually just install KDE on the Ubuntu

Synaptic is pretty good, not great. Aptitude is probably great, but the
learning curve has stumped me so far.
