@#8: I've tried to get into Linux for the second time lately (I had tried Mandrake and RedHat a few years ago and gave up out of frustration with shit constantly breaking and just being a general PITA to get anything done, and yes I'm well versed in bash). So I've been using Ubuntu 7.04 on one of my systems (also tried Kubuntu and Xubuntu). My experiences this time have been...better...but certain things have still been a general PITA. (For instance, I can't find a file manager nearly as nice as Win Explorer or a media player nearly as nice as Media Player Classic. Plus a lot of Windows annoyances have invaded Linux lately, like AutoRun, nag bubbles, automatic post-burn disc ejects, etc. Stability has been no better, I'm having apps crash much more often than I ever have on XP. Documentation is better than it used to be but still spotty. I do find bluetooth support to be much better, though.) It's been enough of a pain that I plan to switch the system back to WinXP very soon. Which is a shame, since I'm not exactly thrilled with MS either (and the last time I liked Apple, Woz was still there).
