I was an Ubuntu user. I've switched to Arch Linux, for precisely the same reason you said, Ubuntu is slow and bloated. So, no, I am not a fanboi in any sense of the word. I don't like the way Ubuntu is being marketed as the best distro in the market, and I don't really see where the six months of development are going, considering the regressions with each release.
My comment about DreamLinux was purely related to UI. That I don't like, and I have a right to my own opinion. I'm not commenting about speed, performance, etc on DreamLinux, as I haven't used it, however, from the screenshots, I don't see anything that amazing about it, yet everybody yammers on about impressive/beautiful graphics. At least Ubuntu does try to have it's own style, as ugly as some people think it is. DreamLinux prefers to ape the Mac. Some like it. I don't.
As regards your comment on the Ubuntuforums, I was a moderator on those forums, and I left of my own free will to cope with school issues. Your comment about the banning the moderators for being creative or members who dare question a staff decision is uncalled far, and definitely not true.
