I've had some issues in the past when using Ubuntu with Bootcamp, but then I did the arrogant techie thing where I didn't read any documentation on the Ubuntu forums (where the bootcamp thing is heavily documented to avoid any problems) and I just went ahead and did it
As usual, Bootcamp vs Fusion depends on what you need to do with the OS you want to install.
What is the reason you are interested in installing Ubuntu, just to play around with linux? If that is the case then it will be easier to use Parallels or VMware Fusion.
If you do decide to go the bootcamp route then I strongly advise reading what the ubuntu forums have to say on the subject as I can tell you from experience it is not as simple as installing windows under ubuntu, there are a couple extra steps.

ya i just want to have some fun and just test it out. I did it with VMware after people said bootcamp isnt made to work with ubuntu
