I used Ubuntu as a second operating system alongside Windows. It was a nightmare experience for me to install something. I needed to use like 10 commands for a simple program that in Windows I could easily 'Next, next'

. The other problems are with the drivers, lack of games and software, crappy cheap looking integrated apps.
But... if you use it for social media and for watching movies and doing some basic university projects/presentations then you can go with it.
