Shoud I get Ubuntu?

[Jordan97]

Should I just go and buy Windows 7 for my new build, or should I download Ubuntu?

Is it any good?

What are its advantages over Windows, what is its disadvantages?

I really do not know anything about Linux so any help would be appreciated.

The only reason I have Windows now is for games, a few other people have it for Adobe products that aren't on Linux. If neither of those or other Windows exclusive applications are must haves, then saving £80 or more to go for Linux is quite compelling.

Does this mean that Photoshop will not run on it?

Ok, thanks everyone.

I think I'll just stick with Windows. I rely a lot upon Windows based programs and I've only ever used Windows so It'll be easier to get along with as well.
