Linux

So. I tried Linux a few months ago. I was suggested Ubuntu as the most user friendly one. So yeah, I install it.

Bam. Slower than windows fucking Vista. Windows FUCKING VISTA. Sound doesn't work. It takes 2-3 days to find out how to install FireFox. Adobe was a lost cause. File system was confusing(But that was probably with my inexperience using that style of filesystem, I'll admit) the colors were ugly, and the other colors to change the theme to were equally ugly. All guides for Ubuntu were outdated, and all the help forums I tried were empty.

In the end I never did get my sound to work, it made even the simplest tasks over complicated, and while I will admit some were due to my own inexperience with Linux, But some tasks seemed complicated just for the sake of being complicated, and most of all, time consuming. I've heard Linux being touted as a OS for programmers, but that's retarded. You'd spend more effort on it's time consuming tasks than with programming.

Not a troll, just wondering. Why should I use Linux?

Firefox 1.5 was preinstalled on ubuntu when I installed it. Firefox 2.0 was out. Installing Firefox 2.0 should have been as easy as double clicking a file. Instead I had to unzip the tarball and do all this shit, since I didn't want to apt-get.

All the help I got was "do this". For someone who wants to know WHY it works, this was stupid.
