Comment Ubuntu rocks..... (Score 4, Interesting) 171
Two weeks ago I found Ubuntu.
I've tried various distros over the years, but none had enough polish for the rest of my family to use.
After installing the distro on a lower end machine (PII 350), I took the plunge and migrated my wife's machine.
She loves the eye-candy in Gnome. All she does is surf, email and use office apps. I upgraded to Open Office 2 and she's happy.
Past attempts at migrating my wife's machine to a distro failed. This one worked great.
My kid's machines are next.....
User support on the Ubuntu forums has been great. Any problems I run into usually can be answered with a search of the forums.
