I have been with Fedora for quite some year.. until I bump onto Ubuntu for the first time on 2005.
that time been received free CD for Ubuntu live.. and I happened to depend on it when the hardisk crashed
and got no money to replace.. first 3month starting work at KL.. hahaha.. 8-)
somehow it need sudo for a lot of administrative thing.. [back to to that time lah..] i think now is quite improved and friendly already..
But as per someone else pointed out
here [lowyat.net]..
33.33 minute been wasting to type sudo each time..
then I just want to laugh out loud.. as per this ..
image taken from : xkcd.com
p/s : been using it in a file containing this “/usr/bin/sudo su -” and set /etc/sudoers without passwd for myself..
so can become root by typing short command ..such as “root” ..
yet another proof of my laziness for typing password..haha.

I have the same issue with eeebuntu on eeepc too, sudo this, sudo that.
And feels weird typing my own password instead of root's.
what to do, stuck with centos/rhel for work ... and since use the work machine so much, might as well make the other home machines the same for familiarity (except for the eeepc, for which the default centos is a bit too slow).
that remind me on one event at one of my project site.
requirement was easy..
"need to set a new ip address to the machine."
and the machine happened to be running Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) because someone else already installed it earlier..
First few minute wasted to guess the root password as the one who installed it also not quite familiar..
then only realized it need normal user password instead of root password.. (one of occupational hazard i think.)
