On all of them I had problems using firefox in both windows and ubuntu. This finally forced me to uninstal ubuntu and then totally uninstal firefox in windows, including having to delte files manually. The problem with the dual boot is that ubuntu doesn't work well with some basic firefox addons. I love foxmarks since I use so many comput3ers. With ubuntu it just doesn't work and causes firefox to have bugs and the enter button not working. I installed ubuntu using wubi on several computers.

I had installed Ubuntu on dual boot even on Ubuntu 7 (which had no Wubi), so that speaks volumes. One worry that I have is what use Windows users (and mostly non-geeks) will have with Ubuntu. Security, stability etc. don't really impress them because they do not look at such factors, usually. I have installed Wubi too, and am very impressed.

Had it downloaded and running within 2 hours with no problems. I've always wanted to dig into Linux with something other than a live CD. If Wubi is pushed hard enough, M$ should be very afraid.
