Not as simple and easy as in Mac or Windows software installation. It's the initial learning curve I am dealing with. In Windows, install is as easy as a double-click and it is installed. In Ubuntu, there were a series of terminal command line stuff, a couple tries before it installed, and have no idea where it installed. When I have more free time this winter, and maybe with some help with knowledgeable Islanders, like Luke and yourself, I will get the hang of Ubuntu.
