What surprised me the most was that, even with the crappy ati video card which barely works in suse, ubuntu had some cool desktop effects working by default.

Given the confidence in the long term viability of the distro arising from the tremendous momentum behind it right now, I could easily see ubuntu becoming my main distro soon.

I would like so see more commercial support for ubuntu server though. Commercial support these days is still unfortunately often "RHEL only" or RHEL or SLES only".
