On my System76 Lemur Ultra Thin (lemu4) notebook PC, I tried Ubuntu 12.04.1 64 bit LTS Precise Pangolin and Ubuntu 12.10 64 bit Quantal Quetzal and I have to say that Precise Pangolin was much better.

I currently have Quantal Quatzal 12.10 but I'm wondering if I should switch to Precise Pangolin 12.04 LTS...I heard 12.10 was less stable and more things are available for 12.04.
