What's all the hype around Ubuntu?

Apps you see right away (like the system updater) look
prettier and function better than the corresponding
"first impression" kind of apps in redhat/fedora.
But ubuntu is too easy! I'm currently working on installing
gentoo, and expect to have a kernel that actually boots sometime
