tried ubuntu by installing it on an external HDD so when i wanted i would plug it in, boot it and away. getting it to work was fine until i needed to do things like plug in other external hard drive which for whatever reason would not be recognised.
Went on the Ubuntu forum and to be fair a lot of people helped me, but it still didn't work.
I then decided after many many hours trying to get it to work to delete it. However the 'grub' thingy ubuntu installed on the HDD would not go away, even after formatting or low level formatting. I was like wtf ?! i hate this, so many problems for such simple things that just work on windows 7. i had to use KillDisk in the end to delete Grub, the most persistent, annoying thing i have ever come across.
So yea that's my linux story. I for one don't see it's allure. nothing works without using some kind of code.
