I can't speak for all, and wouldn't presume to do so. I have very simple 
computer needs as an average home user. [ E-mail, web surfing, etc. ] I 
don't need a lot of higher end bells and whistles. I find (K)Ubuntu to 
be _very_ well suited to my needs and _very_ easy to use. What few 
problems I've had are generally of my own making. All part of the 
learning curve.

I suggest that people that think it's difficult should pay more 
attention to what the issues are about, and who is having the issues.

The only thing on my "Wish List" is that there was a package somewhere 
that had good mapping like Microsoft Streets and Trips.
