Why Linux Sucks

I have not tried Linux as yet. I, however, did research in order to decide which distribution to try, but seem to the destined to be the Linux user all Linux experts dread. I have an old desktop with 256MB RAM with Windows XP, ATI graphics card, use Iburst to get onto the internet and a Canon printer. From what I have read so far in forums, I am going to have difficulty to get each of these to work.

I also like trying out new software to do things, and use Flash heavily to play chess and watch Yahoo music videos. There are problems here too...
