Ubuntu is ok. Doing all of the "basic" stuff like Word processing, web surfing, and simple photo editing, are no problem.
If your needs go beyond that, and you dont have the stomach for command lines, editing source.list files, and getting the runaround from the package manager or hit-or-miss online help, then stick with what you've got. Compiz is fun for a minute, but not enough of a reason to go into this cocky and act like this is going to be a cakewalk.
