I see people whining about Ubuntu. Frankly, its the first distro that works right out of the box with minimal config. And, if you want to save time.. Download Automatix for it and then run. Check what you want installed (video drivers too) and then let it run, enter your password every once in a while and it sets it up.. and it works. yes, it has problems (which OS doesnt?) but, it is stable and userfriendly. I have yet to find a problem or question about Ubuntu that doesnt have an answer somewhere. So, even if their QA isnt perfect, so what? it is still light years ahead of micro$haft.
