I put together a new desktop machine for the first time in 12 years a few weeks ago and decided to run xubuntu on it.

The most annoying aspect of it is the discrepancies between applications and keyboard shortcuts.

If you're a power user mac who uses keyboard shortcuts a ton then going back to X11 apps can be a little painful.

The other downside I had was on install I had no wireless card and had to download a tarball to a usb stick and recompile my device driver just to connect. I kind of expected things to just work by now, it's a shame there's still these little hiccups but I guess I shouldn't have bought cutting edge?
