My experience is somewhere in between - I still use OSX often, but have a laptop with Ubuntu on it. There are some things that I miss, but for most purposes Ubuntu is fine. Hardware support is not bad, and this on an ultrabook that shipped with Win8. Ubuntu lacks a little of the polish of OSX (or even Win7), but it is perfectly usable for most of what I need (most of the apps I use are the same anyhow, FF and Chrome, Sublime, VLC, etc.)
