Ubuntu has a long way to go to beat PCLinux ease of operation.

PCLinux downright stomps MS Windows and easily out performs Ubuntu/Kubuntu.

Just my 2 cents!

Out of the box maybe.....

However, PCLinuxos falls over too easily when you try to add software to it.
Being rpm based it is far more unstable than deb based systems, and the default texstar repositories are limited.
Add 3rd party repos in there and you start to get dependency hell.
