Tried to use, but can't really get use to it. Any suggestions? 
What are your most used apps? I struggled with it for a week and then finally got settled in. There is a stack overflow section for ubuntu so if you have any questions you can ask there.
Adobe softwares, LoL others I can get alternatives, the most important one is drivers...nvidia nvs won't work. Took me days before I figure out how and I forgot :p
If it is photoshop, gimp is a good alternative, and for nvida

Since I'm a graphic designer, photoshop is a must...
I like what he said, nvidia is stupid not to make drivers for linux. Wish there are more laptop with AMD gpu in it, mantle XD
You can use wine for photoshop.
isn't only photoshop cs3 or 4 is support?
Wine is an application that runs windows application regardless of what version it is....then I'll give it a try later
