Well being a avid Windows user and in tech support I figured I would give this Ubuntu a go that I heard so much about. Really it was not what I was expecting. I expected something new and exciting. When in reality it was alot more confusing than I imagined and I am in IT. I really can't imagine how people think think this would be any good for newbies. If I was a newbie I would be totally lost. If this is a polished version 7.10 I would hate to see prior versions. I really wanted to like it but after a few days of working it and finally figuring out how to install crap and figuring out the crazy file system it still doesn't impress me at all. I try to do right clicking and other things and it just doesn't have that option and things don't flow. Maybe I'm warped but this reminds me of my dos days and I really don't want to go back there. I think it has a long way to go. Sure if I had time to figure it out I could but who has time now adays. I want to jump in and go. You guys mention Suse..is this really any different than Ubuntu and will it restore my faith in linux? If its the same thing I mise well not even try it.
