Ditto. My young mother (she would kill me if I told you her age) is pretty happy with her brand new Ubuntu-upon-Toshiba laptop, and she comes from Mac OS 9 which is supposed to be much friendlier. True, I configured DVDs and MP3 playback for her, but I have not had to open a support ticket so far. At least I know that I will help her gladly, unlike with the default Vista install.
