How hard is it to use Ubuntu Linux?

Programming has no more to do with Linux than it does with windoze.

Linux Magazine (Linux Pro Magazine in the US) just came out with a Ubuntu Special with a 4 gig DVD of the latest release - 8.10. The mag is full of articles on how to install, how to find help, how to use Ubuntu and the major packages.

If you were truly savvy you whould find Ubuntu drop-dead easy. Your questions lead me to believe you would find the mag I refer to useful.
