But Linux sucks whale penis.
I use Ubuntu on a daily basis at home. I'm a windows programmer in my day job, but when I'm at home Ubuntu does everything I need. I don't do any kind of pc gaming, so that's not an issue. I don't own a DV camera, so I don't care about that. I can email, type up docs, surf the net, and it all just works. It's even installed on my kid's pc, they've never missed windows. My wife has it on her Acer Aspire One, and I have and Elonex OneT, with the 3mx distro installed. We've all got iPods and they work with no problems, so why would I need to pay for an OS to do all this?

I realise this is responding to an old topic, but I thought I'd get it out there. Carry on!

James is just irritated Ubuntu didn't support his old/special video card and his TV Tuner stuff didn't work.

I've got Ubuntu on my PC at home, alongside Vista. It pretty much does everything I need and it's faster than Vista, too. The only thing I'm missing is a program to write C++ in. I know there are a lot out there (I have KDevelop and Code Blocks installed, actually) but I can't get the damn compilers/targets/paths to work because I'm stupid. Sad

If anyone could point me towards a step-by-step "How to install _____ and get it to work in Linux" tutorial for noobs, I'd be very grateful.

When I used Linux it was actually easier than Windows thanks to Linspire's invention CnR. Click 'n Run takes the iTunes concept of simply clicking on what you want and having it all done for you but uses it for programs and games.

This was some time ago, but it was meant to be made available for Ubuntu if you want to check it out.

I've not seen that, but I'll take a look. Thanks!

BTW, cool wallpaper, forgot to mention in in my rant above Smiley

I usually work my way through the Ubuntu forums, but if you've got anything specific send me a pm and I'll see what I can do

Oooh, nice and minimalistic. Kinda like my Ubuntu desktop:

Since I like extra work and dual-boot, here's my windows desktop:
