I am an Ubuntu fan because it is safe, stable, easy, user friendly, good looking, free and open source. I had many problems with Windows systems in the past and I am very happy that I have found this alternative solution, that solved all my problems. I won't say that I never encounter any problem at all, but they are so minor and easy to solve compared to my Windows nightmare.

I now use the computer for where I bought it for and that is to work with and not to waist my time solving all kinds of weird problems or reinstalling my system, defragmant and so on, where I as a non technical person don't want anything to do with.

Ubuntu safes me so much time and worries about virus infections or spyware that it really amazes me that still so many people fall into the Microsoft trap.

If you think this is nonsense or if you are curious, just try it out and download the live CD here: www.ubuntu.com/
(With the live cd you can try Ubuntu without installing it to your computer - it is a bit slow and not all the features are there but it is a good way to get an overview). If you don't want to download it, you can also ask to have it send to you for free.
