While Ubuntu is supposed to be easy to use, and usually is, its pretty common to run into issues which can be maddening and can't be solved without resorting to the Terminal.
While I've used it one and off for the last couple of years, trying out the new versions, the problems have stopped me from using it regularly, unlike Windows and OSX.

I've been a Linux user for 10+ years, and an Ubuntu user for the last 4. If your hardware works without issue then Ubuntu is a very very simple OS to setup and use. Since 9.04 the only time I have had to drop to the cmdline to keep my system running was to reconfigure X.org (simple command nothing complicated) to detect my new external monitor (running a laptop btw).
Best thing to do IMHO is download the LiveCD and have a play. No need to install, and you can get a good feel for it before hand.
Anyway, incase it hasn't be picked up, I am an Ubuntu Linux user. I don't use proprietary OS (except at Uni). Apples are for eating and Windows are for looking out of
