It's Debian-based, so it's technically sensible, and Ubuntu work VERY hard to have stuff Just Work. I routinely recommend it to people who want to try something else because they're bloody sick of Windows sucking. I also recommend anyone working on the FreeBSD ports/packages system to try Ubuntu and the Synaptic Package Manager (a nice graphical frontend to apt). It's RIDICULOUSLY easy to use and there's little excuse for doing any less well. - d.
