Welcome!

It may tke a while to "get into" linux, but once you realioze that you can totally customize your environment (and rather easily, I might add with Synaptic), you will easily become addicted!

Hey Dream, i'm relitively new here too, and I can definately recommend the Ubuntu forums as a great place to not only learn about Ubuntu, but Linux in general! Its amazing what you'll pick up!

All the best!
