Post Your GNU/Linux Desktop here

I need a system managable by my tech ignorant parents without hastles.

Ubuntu is the perfect canditate for that. Infact, I might need to leave ubuntu alone on my desktop, perhaps along with windows XP, and take away arch in a laptop once I start my technical education.

I know we are not supposed to discussing things in this thread.However, I am really curious to know what is the difference between Ubuntu and a fully configured Arch with GNOME for your "tech ignorant" parents ?

Noticeable differences? The menus are mixed up . Other than that I barely see anything different than that.

Mod note: @MetalheadGautham, I think you should really ask questions in the Arch or Ubuntu thread.

Smplayer(Mplayer) + w32codecs can virtually play all files.
I have tried playing *.MOV on Smplayer. it plays it easily
