That just reinforces my view of Ubuntu being the windoze of Linux. I won't write a diatribe on this subject, I've just been thinking that I missed something great about Ubuntu and was missing out. Now I know I'm not missing out on anything. Fancy little name, though! At least it's still Linux, that's all that really matters I guess. Enjoy.

Well, to each his own, but after spending many, many hours in the past
figuring out how nearly every aspect of my Linux install works, I'm
fairly happy now with Ubuntu because I don't have to figure it all out
over and over again. I've moved on to more interesting problems that
don't involve troubleshooting why X isn't working or why there's no sound.
