Hey, all...

I've been a user of FreeBSD and OpenBSD for quite a while now.  Unfortunatl=
y,=20
I haven't had much time to tinker lately, and that's unlikely to change in=
=20
the near future.  Sadly, I need to get an OS that my wife would be more=20
comfortable using and that wouldn't be as time-comsuming to make it more=20
comfortable for her. =20

I downloaded the uberyl live CD and found that ubuntu seems to pick up on=20
everything I have on the laptop (as well as all the attachments), so I'm=20
downloading it now.

Because I've put so much time into getting this FreeBSD install where it is=
=20
now (and because I favor the BSDs), I'm still a bit hesitant...  Has anyone=
=20
here had much experience with ubunu as a desktop?  Negatives/positives?

Kind of OT, I guess...  I'd just rather hear it from someone in this group=
=20
rather than the inevitable, "Oh yeah.  You won't be sorry." from the ubuntu=
=20
folk (salespitches =3D=3D fingernails on a chalkboard :) ). =20

Thanks,

Mike


PS.  Yes, I've played with PC-BSD.  Unfortunately, that's still more work t=
han=20
I have time for.
