When all is said and done, I can look at porn on either OS equally well, but I like the fact that doing so via Ubuntu is making the world a less corporate place in some small way.

You just answered your own question.
Big kudos to Ubuntu though, they've done a lot for the Linux community in a short period of time. But it's a long way before they can compete with Windows when it comes to more advanced use. I can't see that happening in the forseeable future.
