A lot of us have been using Linux for so long that building from source is not a foreign concept. But don't let any of us talk you into it. [grin] Always check Synaptic for the software you want to install. I'd say 95% of the time, it'll already be packaged and ready to install. Synaptic takes care of dependencies 99% of the time, so there should almost never be a time when you have to build an app yourself.

Ubuntu has some excellent user-friendly utilities. I recommend using them whenever possible.
