So far so good and when I have an issue there is
ALWAYS an answer on the forums only complaint I really had was the emulator that allows the use of windows software (WINE) but there are a few versions/branches out and in conjunction it works well.... I wish I could say the same with Vista! all I can say is if you got 99% to work your are a better man than I... for me I would have to say 85% and that is including the launch in xp sp2 selection.... but what I choose isn't going to be the same as the next man so... all I can say is I chose Ubuntu 8.10 originally 8.04 in dual boot and as soon as I knew what to do I just couldn't look at windows the same way... Your call man give it another shot not like it's going to cost you anything Ubuntu and most of the software/apps are free so.... only thing I can suggest if you do try again is if you like a cleaner looking desktop enviroment than I would go with KUbuntu may be a better fit for you....then again you could always run all dirivitives of Ubuntu once you've installed Ubuntu just add them on and select them at the log in screen....just so you know though I haven't given up on windows 7 hope its better than the beta... wish I could say that about IE8 what a let down that software is....
