Then I wonder what Linux distro you have been using. I've been using Mandriva 2008.1 for half a year now and no problems with software. Granted, I don't use programs for Windows since I don't need them, but everything else has been pretty rock solid.

Thats the whole point.It would seem like Ubuntu is using more processor time than Vista, since it looks just as good/better, but since its optimized better, its actually using far less.I'm not saying Linux is the ultimate solution. It isn't... yet. If however you know more than a little about computers, and don't mind learning command line operation, Linux is very efficient.

Most of the programs in Linux are far worse than Microsoft's ones. Only a few can compete, like: GIMP and Amarok. Its true, its more "user friendly" but it turns to a nightmare having to fix all and any issue with a stupid useless console wich will take you time to master it cus its like using MS-DOS. And the visual aspect is a complete bunch of crap, theres no comparison to Vista's visual themes, all of them suck in Linux (if ever appearance is important for you, cus for me it is).

Believe me. You will get tired of it at some point. I resisted only 2 months. The first day was an oddisea to install Lime Wire, it didnt work at all. Then... finding a decent instant messenger. Then running my MS programs. Then visual issues and customizing. Then an update in which all fucked up: the audio, the video, everything. I could have fix them all but, having a techical issue once a week sucks. Go back to Vista, it's a big relief.

I have Ubuntu newest version on my Dell Laptop, I got tired of all the 'jokes' that Windows would pull. I have no complaints so far, it takes a little while to get used to the Heightened Security of Linux Ubuntu -you have to authorize installations and such- though there's no virus problems so farQuit Windows. Years ago, linux was not usable, now it is working.

lol what's that video clip from at the end? I'd like to watch how that turns out :D

It is very easy to use. The effects that you see in the video come from a very well setup version, but you will get good software from the beginning. Note: you will not be able to play games on it.
