This is the first time I've tried Mer, so forgive my newbie excitement, but WOW. That's really nice. Given the original write-up saying not to expect much, I guess I wasn't expecting it to look and work so good/well.

Unfortunately, coming from a relative Linux rookie, it's not ready for day-to-day use, since it's still missing a lot, especially for those less technical with Linux. In dinking around with it, I also frequently reached some dead ends, where I couldn't do anything, couldn't exit, or couldn't figure out how.

I'll keep messing with it, and provide feedback (wherever I can). I think that even though I'm not extremely technical (when it comes to Linux), the feedback I provide should be able to help Mer reach the "fluffiness" level that it will need to be in order to be used on a day-to-day basis.

Oh, and the install....painless. I chose the easy auto method, installing it to my internal memory card, and despite all my fretting, it was for nothing. It was just as easy to install Ubuntu on my notebook PC.

Thanks to everyone working on this! Great work!
