I just installed Ubuntu Saturday night, deleted it last night. I have built 3 of my own pcs, 2 for my sons and a PVR/Media Center for the living room. My husband is MCSE/MCSA, that pays our bills (Thank you Microsoft). I would replace Microsoft's Windows with Ubuntu, I just tried to this past week. 83 updates BTW, about the same for windows. But I have a slipsteam of windows with sp2 and a rollup. So actually Ubuntu had more updates. I could not get wine to work, so I couldn't use Incredimail, which I paid for, so giving it up is out of the question. Linux made me feel stupid, period. No easy way to say it. Imagine how an a normal user will feel. I already use Firefox, I use OpenOffice. I quit playing games so I was willing to give windows up. Still may. I need a beginners guide I guess. When more products are able to be used in it. It will be ready. I just can't grasp the install programs in linux.
LOL, didn't you notice I was female. It's cute. I love the different letter backgrounds, ecards, etc. So in my opinion, it does not blow!
