Yesterday I tried Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit release candidate on my old laptop HP NX6325 I have 3G of ram installation was realty fast but my wireless network was not detected :(, after installation I had problems with suspend/hibernate my laptop freezes after suspend ..after many hours of search solution on net without success I decided to test jboss with eclipse ...after starting jboss with jdk 6 64 bit ~700 M of RAM was used which is much more than was in win xp.
Another problem I had with my creative web cam ..my hp scanner was not working also so I decided to go back to win xp sp3 with this os my laptop rocks !
Many problems on Ubuntu I had also with software ..for e.g. I tried to use Wolfram Mathmematica 7 linux version after I applied all patches I still had ~20% of cpu usage on idle state of mathmeatica :( ...also many problems with linux software incompatibility with new kernel.
My final conclusion : linux evolution is remarkable but is still not a solution for home/multimedia pc
