I suppose I'll give Ubuntu a couple more tries.

But as I was reading your post and replying to it, I came upon an Ubuntu problem.

My wifi connection randomly died. So thats the start of my issues.

Firefox freezes when I close a streaming movie. (I heard this was a flash issue and is unavoidable)
Folders are difficult to arrange. (Im running Gnome which I hear is supose to be a cure for OCD freaks like myself)
Photoshop doesnt work. (I get some hardware error when using Wine)
Games are limited to whatever Wine's DB has. (So It seems if you wanna play games, then dual boot with windows)

Photoshop up to version 7 works with Crossover Office. The CS's don't. You can "sponsor" a program to get more attention from Crossover devs. Wine can run the CS's a little, I think, but not well...everything functions pretty much, except you can't register it.

What do you mean by the folders are difficult to arrange?

What kind of wireless card do you have? You can just type "lspci" in the terminal and copy and paste that here.

Maybe try firefox-3.0 instead of Firefox 2.

So Please. Tell me why you choose Ubuntu. And you can't say compiz or beryl.
I disagree, Ubuntu pretty much worked out of the box and is free. I don't have to worry of my AV or AS is updating properly. There is no expiration on software that you use, etc.

If you are not up for the challenge then head back to windows. I personally don't find Linux at all that difficult to use. A few years ago I played with Linux and found it's usability a bit lacking, but Ubuntu is really user friendly.

Then don't use it.
那就不要用了

I find both Windows XP and Ubuntu to be functional. I choose the latter functional OS over the former functional OS, because Ubuntu is free and easy to manage, includes all the software I need, and looks nice.
我发现u/w 两个都强大， 我选择近来功能强的 OS 而不是过去功能强的 OS , 因为 ubuntu free , 而且易于管理, 包括我所有需要的软件，而且看起来不错

And to me, Ubuntu works straight away without a lot of extra tweaking. Can you believe people actually have different experiences? Yes, it's true. Believe it.

I don't use Compiz or Beryl. It's fun to spin the cube a few times, but then it's pretty much useless. I use IceWM and love it.

我不用 compiz /beryl , 转几次那个盒子很有趣，后来觉得没什么实用性，我喜欢 IcdWM

hi,
really nice to read through all these posts... and I was wondering what I could add to all this... kernel tom really says it all, well nearly...

读了所有的帖子真的很棒 , 我在想我能加些什么呢，kernel tom 的确全说到了，好吧，近似的 ..
there is one magical word that I am missing though in all this, it's choice... you don't choose to work on Windows. Most of the time you work on Windows because you got it with your new computer or because the company system administrator is VB-freek (my case).

所有这些都漏掉一个魔力的词语 , 就是选择，你不用选则在windows下工作， 多数时候你用windows 只是因为你得到一台新电脑，或者公司的系统管理员is VB-freek(我的情况)

choosing a Linux ditro really is choosing for freedom... it is choosing to do what you want with your computer AND choosing to be part of a increasingly fast growing community of, mostly, great and OPEN minded people...
选择一个linux 版本实际上是选择自由 ... 选择你希望你的电脑做什么，选择作为一个逐渐增长的社区的一部分，主要是伟大的开放思维的人们

one final thing though, particulary for all ex-Windows users like me. Remember the time you spent on looking for cracks for those "great" Windows programs? I did... and nowadays, on Ubuntu, I just ask my computer to install this or that program to do what I want...

have a nice Ubuntu !!

最终的事情，特别是对像我这样以前的windows用户 , 想想那些寻找伟大的windows程序的 cracks 的时间 , 我确实记得，而现在，在ubuntu里，我只用要求我的电脑安装这个或哪个我真正需要的程序

I chose Ubuntu over Windows because, Ubuntu is vastly superior! (巨大的优势)

The "killer application" for me is the ease of software installing aka packet management.

When i was in school i always searched for free programs and i usually installed a bunch of buggy applications with tons of ad ware or illegal copies. If i remember correctly, you even had to pay for something simple like Winzip?
With Ubuntu its so much faster and easier as i try out lots of programs.

There are a lot of more reasons, but i couldn't live without the (Debian-)packet management any more.

对我来说最主要的是通过包管理器方便的安装软件
我还在学校的时候就总是在找免费的软件， 我曾经装过许多有bug 的满是广告的应用软件，或者非法copy . 如果我记得准确， 你甚至需要给简单到象 winzip 这样的东西付费？:em04

而 ubuntu 下可以又快又方便的尝试许许多多的软件

有很多的理由，不过我绝对离不开（debian）包管理方式，

I choose Ubuntu for freedom. Freedom to customize, freedom to choose what software i really "need", freedom to not have to have a license, freedom to do whatever I want on my computer.

我选择 ubuntu 是为了自由. 自由的定制，自由的选择我真正需要的软件，自由的不需要许可证， 自由的在电脑上做任何我想做的事情

This is why I now only use linux:
I was tired of the one hour/week devoted to keeping my windows free from viruses, spyware, and running quickly.
I was tired of having to reinstall windows every month to keep it running as quick as it does when it is new.
I was tired of having to reboot daily to keep my computer quick.
I was tired of the boring interface.
I was tired of trying to find a program to do X, Y, or Z.
Honestly the list goes on and on.

There has not been a problem which I could not fix in Ubuntu or get help fixing. Let's look at some of the things that Ubuntu can do that Windows cannot:
Stay free from viruses and spyware with minimal effort.
Stay at the same speed whether the install is days or years old.
Stay on for months at a time without slowing down.
Tweak the interface to look however I would like.
Updates and upgrades are forever free.
Package management is Ubuntu is vastly superior. Whenever I need a program, Google does not need to be your first stop, Synaptic is.
Rather than tracking down updates to every program you ever have installed, 90% of them are taken care of by Ubuntu and if you can find repositories for your other programs, even more can be.

To me these things are enough. Not to say things have not gone wrong in Ubuntu, but I have worked these things out, with the help of this community and Google. I am pretty handy with computers so perhaps this is why I like Ubuntu more, but it is not for everyone. Good luck and I hope you to give Ubuntu and Linux another try sometime.
__________________

这些是我现在为什么用linux :
我厌倦了 1小时/每周 ,投入的时间保证windows 不受病毒，间谍软件的侵扰，并且快速运行
我厌倦了每个月必须重装windows 来保证它跟新装的时候那样快
我厌倦了不得不每天重启确保它的速度
我厌倦了它乏味的界面
我厌倦了试图找阿找一个软件来做 x.y.z
实话说这个列表可以一直写下去

ubuntu 下没有我解决不了的问题或者找不到帮助, 来看看ubuntu 可以做的事情而windows 做部了的
最小的努力就能确保不受病毒/spyware 的侵害
保持同样的速度不管是装了一天还是一年
保持速度不慢一个月(1次重启)
界面可以调整到我喜欢的样子
更新和升级永远免费
包管理方式是 uubntu 很大的优势，当我想要装一个软件的时候，google不是第一个要去的，新立得

对我来说，这些足够了，不是说ubuntu 一直没麻烦，但是借助google和这里的社区我都能搞定，我对电脑比较熟，可能这是我为什么喜欢ubuntu比较多的原因，但不是对任何人都适合， 祝你好运,希望你有时间再试试 ubuntu 或着其他发行版

Why would you use Windows if you can use a better OS, like Ubuntu?

I use Ubuntu because you wouldn't catch me dead entering my credit card number in those malware servers known as Windows. MS really needs to be held accountable for not designing and implementing adequate security measures in their OSes.
