Ubuntu is treating me very well.
I have Ubuntu 11.10 on this desktop and Ubuntu 12.4 on my laptop. Like 12.04. will soon be upgrading the desktop - just waiting for an opportunity. I know it does not require much.
A while back i bought a new HP laptop for my Housing Co-op. Stripped off the Microsoft OS and loaded 11.04. The person it was for did not take the time understand Ubuntu nor did she ask for my help. Hence returned it. One of the members on the Finance Committee was very upset that I took off Microsoft OS. He wanted me to re-install Microsoft. He did not get any support from the other members. Ubuntu still rules on that laptop.
But the point of my little story is that there is still a lot of opposition to Open Source. I don't know how to deal with it. When I forget to convert a file to PDF or Microsoft these savy Microsoft guys demand that I convert to Microsoft documents. They seem so limited or uninformed on Microsoft.
Wish I could convince some.
Oddly they find that Android is quite acceptable.
Thanks for reading this far, Gary
