Also you can upgrade to a new ubuntu by just installing it like a prgram, in MS Windows you'd have to buy the new windows, install it, there'd be compatibility problems, it'll look different, in ubuntu it changes only little.

It runs better and faster than Windows and installing programs and applications is very simple. This is my first Linux experience and, IMO, it is not hard to learn.
