    Ubuntu (or any other Linux) is very different from MS Windows. There's a good article about that called "Linux is NOT Microsoft Windows" in this thread:

    http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/lin...ead-first.html

    As to why Ubuntu is recommended for beginners? Well that's up to the person recommending it. I personally don't recommend any distribution over another simply because one "beginner" isn't the same as all beginners. Some folks prefer to dive in with a "do everything yourself" approach and some like a smooth transition with tools that look and feel similar to MS Windows. It all depends on the person.

    All major Linux distributions have the same abilities. They can all run the same software and perform pretty much the same exact way on common hardware configurations. Don't choose a distribution based on whether or not it can run XXX or YYY program; they all can. If you like Blender, Ubuntu can run Blender. So can Fedora Core, Mandriva, openSuSE, or Debian. The difference in all these is the presentation, not the underlying features.

    I thank you for your help and on the ubuntu site I'll download the iso. There is only one more problem and I'll be done.

    At what speed do I try and burn the image?

    burn image at minimum possible speed that your burner allow. 16x will be fine.

    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
