kubuntu is extremely cool. today i sought to install the nvidia 
closed-source drivers. downloaded a python app called envy. told it to go 
get and install the drivers. first, for it to run itself, it had to 
install a few pagkages, which it did. then, for the nvidia drivers to work 
it needed to install a few more packages (all of these from the debian 
repository, so trusted), which it did. then it installed and configured 
the drivers. worked perfectly. i remember long nights searching for rpms 
or source tarballs to fix some compile problem.

that having been said, dpkg, dselect, and aptitude are as incomprehensible 
as emacs. well, not so much dpkg, though its man page is gibberish.

but if there'd been a debian distro that was this easy a decade ago, there 
would be a lot more linux desktops. also, i'd have saved probably two or 
three months of work!
