Anybody who expects this Linux thing to be easy is going to be very disappointed.

Yes, it is not hard if you know how to do it. I know, done this, been there, done that ...
But many other users will get disappointed in Linux since there is no stable userland ABI to distribute pre-built binaries on.
Currently it's all about the glue the package managers and their pre-built binary repos can do.

I had trouble with OSX at the beginning because I was too used to Windows. I expected things to be as difficult as they are in Windows. The fact that they were so much simpler, well I was not prepared for that.
Suck Ubuntu's cock all you want, but someday you're going to have to edit a makefile by hand to correct a config error. And there isn't anything in the world but experience that can prepare you for that.

WTF I'm just saying that Ubuntu is a fucking easy distribution to use just like Mac OS X is a fucking easy OS to use, regardless of the odd person not immediatly understanding how to install software or whatever, only because they're used to some other DIFFERENT operating system.
:fu:
Why is cock sucking always assosiated with Ubuntu and never Mac OS X? It seems much more appropriate for Apple users. And I'm just giving you facts and opinions about GNU/Linux or Ubuntu.

Been there, done that. I've had to edit C code to get some packages to compile (isdn4k-utils when I was on slackware; gnumach-1.3 on GNU/Hurd, (but that was only due to multi-line string literals being deprecated in recent version of gcc, and gnumach-1.3 was released in 2002 and uses them. So changing it was pretty easy (though there was _loads_ of them))), and that was long before I learned C.

This is why I just love GNU/Linux.
Makes me feel more like a MAN!
Pathos:
You guys are horribly off topic...I don't need to compile anything yet :)
