I feel like waiting until you know enough to switch is like the developer's Zeno's Paradox.

If you want to switch to Arch, find an afternoon and switch. The wiki has a good starters guide. After you've run through it once wipe it and run through it again with everything you learned the first time through.

Alas, the concept that Ubuntu isn't a free lunch cuts both ways. I'm using the Ubuntu flavor of Arch, so to speak. I even use the wipe and reload technique.

One of the reasons I settled on Ubuntu is AskUbuntu. It has a different standard toward questions, more like HN or StackOverflow, than the Arch community has traditionally been known for.
