Compile source code - and solve problems

http://www.tuxradar.com

Building software from source - that's a bit old-school, isn't it? Who wants to wrestle with the command line, hunting down dependencies and coaxing the GCC compiler into running properly?

The Reality of Using Linux Every Day

http://laptoplogic.com

"It's full of bugs. Nothing ever works. I can't get it to do what I want. It's too hard." [It] probably sounds like I'm talking about Windows, but I'm not. Those are a few of the many complaints I've heard about Linux any time it's brought up.
