Yes, there are a million of these "small" (but frustrating) differences
between distributions.  The general advice is usually to pick one and
stick with it for a while.  Once you get indoctrinated into a particular
distro's way of doing things, the learning curve flattens out a bit.

Trying to learn multiple distros at once before you're experienced with
linux in general is probably too much for anyone who values their time.
 I'm very experienced with linux, and I /still/ hate switching distros...

HTH,
Matt
