This?
Sounds to me like it's very different than the "regular" Ubuntu version you'd use on a desktop.

No - nothing so dramatic.

Amtrak Tickets, Schedules and Train Routes
Just try booking a round trip ticket from Hudson (HUD) to Grand Central Station (NYG). If you type in NY, ok, you get a drop down list, pick an item, and it selects the wrong destination!
Defaults to opening the first train of the day, which takes up the whole screen, so you're wondering, W(here)TF are the other options?
Click on a ticket price. Then you have to click on "Add to Cart" which doesn't always seem to work. Those horizontal green and blue things are clickable, even though the mouse pointer stays an arrow making me, at least, think they're not clickable and wondering what they're there for.
And if you want to change something, clicking on the browser's back button erases all data and you have to start from scratch!
Did I mention the layout is atrocious?
The whole booking design is pathetic. You could write it so that you could do the entire round trip on a single screen!
Must have been written in Ruby on Rails (actually, looking at the page source, it doesn't seem so) by an idiot (but this part still is true.)
Sadly, this is probably the result of feedback from computer illiterate people on what originally was an almost equally bad design but at least didn't behave so erratically.

Not so bad, but I've bought tickets from the NJ Path vending machines. The software does work - but where and when you can do things is crazy.
If I recall correctly, if you want more than one ticket you need to go to the checkout page and find the right spot to begin the changes routine. Why would I want to check out if I didn't finish with my selection?
I'm sure the usual riders don't have any problems - but then again, they're from NJ.

it worked nicely (firefox)
I find the thing works OK, I went up to payment.
Send me your credit card info, and I will do it for you! 
I'd rather be phishing!

I could not get a train from OH to CA no matter what I tried. And it did not indicate why I couldn't get the train. Really terrible waste of time site.

Ah that guy. I have access to his webcam and have recorded some acts of his. Tell him to pay me USD 600 via BTC so I can delete those videos and send him the ticket as compliment. The ticket is free!

I received one very similar last month, except it claimed it used my own camera to catch me in the act of watching the adult video and pleasuring myself, and threatened to send it to my contacts if I didn't pay.
I didn't pay.
So far my friends haven't admitted seeing the video. They're probably too embarrassed.

Sorry about that.
The rest of us didn't think to feel envious.

It would most likely have been "We all tore our eyes out in horror." Or maybe "couldn't stop laughing for days."

I also one that claimed to have used my PC's camera.
I replied asking them where my camera was as a couple of years ago I had stored it in a box somewhere, and buggered if I can find where I put the damn thing.
They never got back with the answer so I'm still missing my PC cam.
So it's my impression that they are not very nice and/or very lazy people. (I mean would it be so hard to send me a quick reply telling where my cam is?)
This internet thing is amazing! Letting people use it: worst idea ever!

Well - one thing they don't have are any of my passwords.
The TO: address was one of my countless throw-away emails. Apparently from an insurance quote from so long ago I don't remember who to punish for selling my email address.
However - if they did have such a video, I'd thank them, upon distribution, for the free advertising of my um, urh, ah . . . "wares". That'd be an interesting strategy . . . ask them how much they want to hurry up with the release.*
* As always, pun intended.
