Wasn't it easy?

A couple of days ago I wrote that Ubuntu is easy, that it is user friendly, that even if you're not a geek you can still enjoy it...and then I posted some weird stuff, that the average Windows user maybe has never seen before...stuff like that:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-next
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install firefox-4.0

Well it can seem scary!
But don't worry, even if you don't understand absolutely anything about computers you can still enjoy Ubuntu for the following reasons:

1 - You won't need it
If you don't want to do complicated things and interact directly with the operative system there's a really good chance that you'll never open the Terminal (yes, that's the name of this scary monster! All this weird commands must be written in a terminal to be really useful ;) )
For a daily use there's no need to use it, you can do everything with your mouse, clicking on the right buttons, like with Windows or Mac, and that's because almost everything now has a graphic interface, even the system administration.

2 - If you really need it, someone will help you!

If you have a peculiar problem, or you want to work faster, or you have special needs, sometimes you'll need to write a couple of lines in the terminal, but don't worry!
It's almost sure that someone already had your problem, so you can simply surf a little bit the internet to find the exact commands to be written in your terminal: open Google, write your problem, and I'm sure you'll find hundreds of links to discussion in different forums about your problem. You'll just have to read a little bit to find out what you must write down.
If you don't find a satisfying answer or you're not sure that can be the right solution for your problem, I suggest you to register to a forum, or to a couple of forums, to write about your problem there: Linux users are really friendly and available to give suggestions to people in needs!

Here's a couple of links to the best forums I found, the ones that really helped me in my first days with Ubuntu!

• The official forum of the community of Ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/

• A good place to ask any question about any Linux distribution: http://www.linuxquestions.org/

• If you're Italian like me: http://forum.ubuntu-it.org/index.php
