That is an impressive list, but honestly I'd take self-submitters like this over the infoworld articles.
I'll see your infoworld and raise you a Techcrunch.
I'm not really sure how this is any different than any other Ubuntu or Debian installation. Installing the required packages for multimedia playback and GIMP and such is fairly simple on any Deb/RPM based distro anyway, and its a skill that any user will have to learn at some point.
Apparently, not everybody is happy with the graphics performance etc.,

Well, I think sub-optimal performance is to be expected if you upgrade from a fairly entrenched system, rather than doing a clean install.
I've yet to run across an OS that does a seamless upgrade from a preexisting installation.

Yeah, I had the same experience (after upgrading to 9.04 b0rked and I had to reinstall).
My fiancee had a similar problem. I used some X.org black magic and avoided a re-install. ("Black magic" because I did not know what finally made it. The steps outlined in the blog-post did not suffice.)
what's the "studio" for if this stuff has to be installed? Consider included some information on how to modify the color theme. I would think most creative types would want a neutral gray palette with minimal visual interference.
Ubuntu Studio does have a neutral grey palette. Modifying the color is easy, System->Preferences->Appearance.
I think it's called Studio because the Linux kernel was built with more aggressive real-time options turned on by default, to reduce jutter in audio+video capture.

Last I heard, the real-time kernel is not part of the current version of Ubuntu Studio.
I tried it about a year ago, and it was unstable/crashed frequently. Switched to Ubuntu regular; been happy ever after.
I like the Dust desktop theme.

That's a lot of work for a perfect desktop. I think the title should be "The Perfect Linux Desktop".
I don't think most hackers are going to see much value in another tutorial about installing Ubuntu.
This kind of thing can be valuable, but I'm surprised to see it on HN.
