I'll give it a try. I just don't want to be stuck with any command line crap.

Xubnutu is deffinetly looking better then the last time I used it; which was like with Xubuntu 7.10 or so.
I like the darker look on it; it works well.
I personally agree with Elektrisk though; I prefer KDE.
At the top will be the same place you hang from.

I have had so many problems with Mint. Seriously.. with Firefox, sometimes it opens up a random, TINY window, and you have to expand it then close it before you can continue browsing. I have no idea. It's strange. Then, I don't like the overall look and feel of it.

LOL. What do you need .exe's for?

Need Photoshop? Get GIMP.
Need iTunes? Get GTKpod.
Need WinAmp? Get RhythmBox.
Need TuneUpUtilities? No, because Ubuntu doesn't litter itself.
Need Microsoft Office Suite? Get OpenOffice.
Need mIRC? Get Xchat.
I really can't think of anything else you would need.

Ubuntu has EVERYTHING you could need. It even has UbuntuTweak, which is a GREAT program.
