Kubuntu is not as polished as Ubuntu is, but that is not really that surprising since it all started with Ubuntu and that's where the main development effort is focused on.

That said, I'm running Kubuntu Dapper on my laptop and I'm pretty satisfied with it.

Yep, I've installed betas of kubuntu dapper and edgy on three different machines (one of the dappers was a laptop) and they've been the smoothest Linux installs I've done with good functionality out of the box.

It seemed like Shuttleworth was really improvising his answer to that question...started talking about appearance of gnome and kde and ended up with a discussion about how he doesn't know MS-Windows install tech.
