I'm a little tired of all the hype. Ubuntu works well enough for internet use but most (not all) of the apps lack the polish of their windows equivalent where they exist and it updates virtually every time I bring it up. I have no problems with winxp and windows 7 works very well. My main complaint with windows is some software and my scanner cease working when updating from winxp to windows 7, but Linux isn't much help here also. For all you people out there, use whatever suits your purpose, but cease and desist trying to sell your pet preferences to the whole world, nobody is paying you to do so and nobody cares.
