Ubuntu 10.04 re-introduces 100 paper cuts

100 paper cuts is such a great ui improvement idea that it's actually embarrassing that it was never thought of before. The problems are so simple, but if they were fixed they would provide a seamless and professional initial experience. If you don't know, a paper cut is defined as:

a trivially fixable usability bug that the average user would encounter on his/her first day of using a brand new installation of the latest version of Ubuntu Desktop Edition.

So any issues you or someone you know runs into in their 1st day, you know the "this is stupid, why did they do that" issues that we may no longer notice, and that are so small nobody bothers to report them. My personal favourite example of this, is the error you used to get when you tried to run apt-get with synaptic open, you know the one ;)
