That's my experience exactly!  I've installed various incarnations of
Windows and it's been a real pain!  Compared to that, Ubuntu is just
Soooo simple.

My biggest annoyance with Windows was it's propensity to give you a two
minute countdown and then it will re-boot to install the latest goodies.
I often left videos rendering overnight .... imagine my anger when that
nice Mr. Gates had made my machine re-boot without my intervention!!!
He wasted hours of my computer time!!!

I don't have anything against Windows, but I really find Ubuntu slicker
and easier in so many ways ....  even for a non-geek.
