I've been running Edgy Eft for a week or so now. In that time, I have successfully performed the following feats that surprised me:

Minor point: I've only had Windows XP and Ubuntu Edgy Eft Knot 2 (with lots of updates so far) on my laptop, so I can only compare between them.

The reason I bring this up is that I'm really excited because this is really fantastic. The total amount of time I've spent installing, fixing configuration files, reading through forums and researching problems, etc. is at most an hour. I spent some time trying to figure out a minor problem I had with installation, but that's it; everything has worked in a way that has been hassle-free.

I'd like to thank the Debian folks, the Ubuntu folks, and all the other thousands of folks who've worked to make this a reality.
