Goodbye Linux/Ubuntu

[ABSDoug]

It's been an over 1-year "love affair". I've told all my friends about it (none tried it). But now I've reached a point... what am I doing? I've spend endless hours trying to get torrents to work on Ubuntu Netbook 10.04. Torrents work fine with XP, stock settings on uTorrent, so let's not start in with the rounter, or that I need to turn down the # of connections, that's all been done. Version 9,10 worked. At this point, why would I fool with this anymore? None of the dozen computers I maintain for friends run Linux. In fact I don't know anyone personally who does. The only person (non professional) that is better at computers than me in using Windows 7. The concept seems REALLY cool, but Linux JUST DOESN'T WORK. Skype has always been a disaster. People complain MS is glitchy... a reboot usually fixes that. People complain of viruses... stop runing with Admn rights & MOST of your problems are solved. So what AM I trying to accomplish with Linux? It's
 faster, yes especially since I've got a netbook... but I use torrents a LOT. This should JUST WORK & if it doesn't... I'm gone.
