Who are "you guys"? 
I installed Ubuntu as my very first open source OS last Aug.  Since then I've 
installed it on 5 computers and now FreeBSD on 2 computers.  From a beginners 
viewpoint I find both installers pretty comparable and actually quite 
similar.  Instead of issuing a blanket criticism that I'm not sure is even 
true, why don't you ask about the specific issues you are having a problem 
with?
