I'm particularly looking forward to using E4rat to speed up my desktop's boot time...

Edit: Nope, nevermind about E4rat. Anything Ubuntu-based is going to have ureadahead installed, and they are in conflict. I currently run Xubuntu 11.10 on 2 machines, Mint 12 and Bodhi on the other two. But it prompted me to read up on ureadahead since I didn't know it existed previously.
