 * Using Open Office for regular documents to share with Microsoft users - only works if I create the first version. This creates problems.
 * Installing new memory and an wifi card on a really old Dell - works, but wifi won't automatically re-acquire - painfully slow process, but probably due to really old wifi card. I am pretty sure this old Dell would run MUCH slower on M$FT.
 * Ruby on Rails on Ubuntu - still difficult
 * Geronimo installation and configuration - stuck
 * Eclipse installation and configuration - difficult but doable
 * Unhappy with: Zim Desktop Wiki seems to cause system freeze on an irregular basis
 * Happy with: Upgrade path from Drapper Drake to Feisty Fawn - successful
 * Overall Ubuntu experience - good
