This community is mostly unmoderated, but there are a few guidelines & rules we ask you to follow and keep in mind when posting entries and comments here.
I find some instructions hard to follow, because they assume I know things I don't - however, I also think there are many excellent step-by-step instructions. And the Danish Ubuntu help forum is generally excellent (the English isn't half-bad, either).
But basically my first two weeks with Ubuntu sucked - I was a Windows superuser, and way too set in my ways. The turning point was coming across an article which said Linux was best for computer newbies and computer programmers, since they were either not set in their ways or capable of learning news things. Windows superusers were the worst group to try and introduce Linux to, since we were so set in our ways. That made me I get stubborn, and I made myself learn and get used to Ubuntu!
Btw, if you have questions, consider joining linux4all and asking questions there; help generate more DW content - and people are helpful, too :o)
