I just want to say that if you're waiting for Linux to be as smooth as Mac or Windows out of the box, it's never going to happen. A full Linux desktop is a combination of software from many different people, targeting the hardware of companies that really couldn't care less about Linux. Yeah there will be hiccups. Most can be avoided by picking the right hardware and consulting good online sources. And once you solve them they'll be gone for good. I'm not saying Linux is for everyone, just that it absolutely is usable, and in my opinion it's absolutely worth the trade-offs.
