Been there done that. Didn't like it. Slowed my computer right down
and a terrible convoluted mess to try and install anything outside of
the cult offerings.

The cult offerings are quite expansive.

Odd, most people report a marked improvement in performance, especially
if using Xubuntu.

Nothing exciting there. Many things depend on your particular GUI.

No performance advantage whatsoever. I also found it to be a
convoluted mess to install many applications. I tried many different
versions with different computers. I had a dual boot setup for a
number of months. I kept going back to Windows XP. I tried Ubuntu,
Mandrake and Red Hat. I didn't give up easily or lightly.
