For a while there were rumors floating around that there wasn't going to 
be a Linux port of the client period (a couple of months ago). I'm just

"Has Ubuntu made linux easy enough to install that hyper-aggressive 
adolescent boys are starting to run it more commonly?"

Yes, that's pretty much what I think is happening. You can't search for 
anything Linux related on the internet and not pull up a million Ubuntu 
tutorials.
