Good call on this. A simple intro tutorial for users who are switching over for the first time would be excellent. I know that they have a tour of Ubuntu's features, but a direct tutorial for fresh windows users would be great - especially if it explained those details about why windows software wont work on linux in a easy to explain manor. Also, yes hopefully Adobe will start looking at promoting their linux outreach a little more. It'll take time, but it will get there. As far as virutal box goes, I wouldn't worry too much about it om nom nom ing resources. It handles virtual machines extremely nicely, and I was able to get smooth virtualization on an old POS government computer I was using a while ago. “Yes it would be nice to have an option for a tutorial on switching from Windows to Ubuntu.” Good call on this.
