• First, I installed Ubuntu using the Wubi installer.
• Enabling Two-Fingered Scrolling was a breeze.
• Installed LAMP and Sublime Text 2. (apt-get install php5 phpmyadmin apache2 mysql-server)
• Installing WINE for Ubuntu for Photoshop CS3 Install.
• Getting Sublime Text 2 into Gnome Shell via alacarte (icons).
• Installing Photoshop in a Virtual Environment.

Just some things I was able to do in a couple hours (currently installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 in a Virtual XP environment). I was going to work on some website stuff, when I ran across a problem, so I decided to start my Ubuntu week early. If I can successfully work on Ubuntu for a week or so, I may consider switching. As of now, I have to use Photoshop CS3 in a virtual machine (not a good sign so far).
