This whole "I'm switching to ubuntu thing", will last about 10 seconds, when they actually see that like anything else, it's just as bad as the rest... I use ubuntu on my work machine and it's OK, in fact I would say as long as you don't do anything to it, it's fine. GNU/Linux is a toy on the desktop, you can do real work, but you spend more time fiddling. My work laptop is ubuntu, I have to have a lot of self control not to play with it.
